Corona Virus Symptoms and Interpretation through Artificial Intelligence: A case study of India

Coronavirus or COVID-19 is a new type of disease which is spreading rapidly by human contact and has been declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). In this paper several parameters like age, cough, cold, travel history, contact with an infected family member, breathing trouble and fever are taken into consideration for predicting the spread of this disease. A survey of one hundred people from 8 different states of India namely Maharashtra, Gujrat, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, West Bengal, Assam, Jammu & Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh have been taken into consideration, and based on those values the spread of Coronavirus in different states of India has been calculated using MATLAB fuzzy logic. Prediction of the spread of novel Coronavirus can be predicted using fuzzy logic and based on this prediction further preventive steps can be taken by the higher authorities. Conclusive result indicate that North Eastern states are less likely to be diagnosed with Coronavirus than the Western states of the country.

Corona Virus Outbreak: Keep Physical Distancing, Not Social Distancing

Different authorities have been urging to practice ‘social distancing’ and/or ‘physical distancing’; and also suggesting different measures for distancing to slowing spread of novel corona virus (2019-nCoV). I describe both the phenomena ‘physical and social distancing’ in socio-psycho and political context and discuss the implications. I highlight ‘distance society’, social presence, importance of media and technologies; and media pedagogy. The findings show that authorities should use the terminology physical distancing instead of social distancing; and should encourage social unity — solidarity, responsibility, cooperation — and social closeness while practicing ‘physical distancing’.

Impact of psychological health on dry eye and management during 2019 novel coronavirus disease epidemic

Since the end of 2019, 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreaks and spreads in Wuhan and whole globe, which brings great challenge to the public health prevention and control work in our country and even in the world. Although the national medical staffs and Public Health Epidemic Prevention personnel to fight the epidemic, a large number of patients and long-term isolation measures have had a huge impact on people's life style. The development of the epidemic has currently been eased, but the blockade and quarantine in many cities have not been completely lifted. During the controls of the coronavirus, changes in living style caused by long-term isolation as well as the fear of disease and economic recession will bring people various negative emotions. These mental health issues may cause and aggravate occurrence and development dry eye. We explores the impact of mental health on dry eye during the epidemic and possible mechanism and puts forward relevant suggestions for the management related eye diseases during and after the epidemic. Key words: Novel coronavirus disease; Mental health; Dry eye; Depression; Stress

Purpose: The objective of this paper is to make an investigation of spread of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in MOROCCO and to estimate the duration of confinement for the fight against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID -19). Methods: Data available on the sites provided by the Moroccan Ministry of Health, nonlinear regression, Gaussian function, residual sum of squares and regression curve. Results: Moroccan citizens must stay at home as much as possible until June 12, 2020. Conclusion: Given the non-existence of a vaccine or an effective treatment against the coronavirus (COVID-19), our research team believes that confinement remains the best solution to limit the spread of this pandemic.

A Simulation on Potential Secondary Spread of Novel Coronavirus in an Exported Country Using a Stochastic Epidemic SEIR Model.

Ongoing outbreak of pneumonia caused by novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) began in December 2019 in Wuhan, China, and the number of new patients continues to increase. Even though it began to spread to many other parts of the world, such as other Asian countries, the Americas, Europe, and the Middle East, the impact of secondary outbreaks caused by exported cases outside China remains unclear. We conducted simulations to estimate the impact of potential secondary outbreaks in a community outside China. Simulations using stochastic SEIR model were conducted, assuming one patient was imported to a community. Among 45 possible scenarios we prepared, the worst scenario resulted in the total number of persons recovered or removed to be 997 (95% CrI 990–1000) at day 100 and a maximum number of symptomatic infectious patients per day of 335 (95% CrI 232–478). Calculated mean basic reproductive number (R0) was 6.5 (Interquartile range, IQR 5.6–7.2). However, better case scenarios with different parameters led to no secondary cases. Altering parameters, especially time to hospital visit. could change the impact of a secondary outbreak. With these multiple scenarios with different parameters, healthcare professionals might be able to better prepare for this viral infection.

Migration in India: Spurt in Reverse Migration amid Economic Slowdown Due to Lockdown

Migration is a major Political and Economical issue related to human rights and development at regional, national and international levels. In a large country like India, the study of migration in different parts of the country helps in understanding the complexities of the society better. The global spread of novel corona virus (COVID19) has been recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). Government of India announced a nationwide lockdown with a complete restriction on passenger travel by all transportation means was implemented since March 24, 2020. During this lockdown the country witnessed economic slowdown, which forced reverse migration. In this paper we analyze the effect of lockdown on economic growth of India.

HRCT imaging features in representative imported cases of 2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia.

With the spread of novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) pneumonia, chest high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) has been one of the key diagnostic tools. To achieve early and accurate diagnostics, determining the radiological characteristics of the disease is of great importance. In this small scale research we retrospectively reviewed and selected six cases confirmed with 2019-nCoV infection in West China Hospital and investigated their initial and follow-up HRCT features, along with the clinical characteristics. The 2019-nCoV pneumonia basically showed a multifocal or unifocal involvement of ground-glass opacity (GGO), sometimes with consolidation and fibrosis. No pleural effusion or lymphadenopathy was identified in our presented cases. The follow-up CT generally demonstrated mild to moderate progression of the lesion, with only one case showing remission by the reducing extent and density of the airspace opacification.

Recent discovery and development on SARS-CoV-2: A review of current literature.

The origin and spread of current novel coronavirus had raised serious concerns among stakeholders around the globe. Different speculations that may unfold the mystery in the future are taking roots, but now there is no globally acceptable opinion about the origin and spread of this novel coronavirus. It is reported that Wuhan city of Hubei Province of central China was the epicenter of this outbreak of novel coronavirus. However, initial inadequate preventive measures allowed the infection to cross the borders of China and that pulls the world into drastic public health and economic crisis. This coronavirus disease now named as COVID-19 by World Health Organization (WHO) and the responsible coronavirus is named as “severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).” The spread of SARS-CoV-2 is alarming even after 5 months of inception and WHO further warns the world to be prepared for more intense spread of COVID-19. Different diagnostic tools to detect SARS-CoV-2 are being used around the globe, but the identification of asymptomatic carriers of the disease is a serious challenge in countering the COVID-19 pandemic. There is no specific treatment available, only preventive, symptomatic, and supportive treatments are being used for clinical management of COVID-19. The available knowledge is limited, therefore, any escalation of information on the disease will help to combat this global challenge of COVID-19. In this review, we have discussed and summarized the available multi-factorial information and recent updates on the SARS-CoV-2 which can help support future research and may help in the strategic management of the current COVID-19 pandemic. The articles available online before June 30, 2020, on bioRxiv, medRxiv, ChemRxiv, Google Scholar, and PubMed have been assessed for the compilation of this review. Information on the official portal of WHO, CDC, ICMR, etc., were also assessed and used with due credit.

COVID-19: Review on Its Etiology, Pathogenesis, and Existence in Humans

The world is facing a new healthcare crisis with the rise and spread of novel coronavirus since December 2019. Also known as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), the disease associated with SARSCoV-2 is even called COVID-19. The infection is said to have originated from the bat community and transmitted to humans through an intermediate host (yet unknown) in Wuhan, in the Hubei region of China. COVID-19 is having a pulverizing impact on the scientific community. As of August 13, 2020, the number of confirmed cases had reached up to 20,439,814 and the death toll to 744,385, affecting more than 188 territories across the globe. In these difficult times, the world is looking towards research and clinical work from different scientific communities to lead the way to a solution to the issue. In this review, we are focusing on COVID-19 emergence, pathogenicity, and existence in humans, as well as the SARS-CoV-2 infection mechanism and its similarities to previous coronavirus strains.

Review of environmental challenges and pandemic crisis of Covid-19.

INTRODUCTION:Spread of novel coronavirus (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 [SARS-CoV-2]) has become a global and pandemic crisis. Some measures such as excessive use of disinfectants, increased production of nonbiodegradable waste, and water pollution will be the consequences of fighting against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which harms the environment. Due to the fact that these effects will be identified in the long term, they may be neglected in the current situation. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the environmental challenges caused by the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic crisis.MATERIALS AND METHODS:This was a review study conducted by search in databases, including Scopus, PubMed, and science direct until early May 2020. Keywords included “SARS-CoV-2,” “COVID-19,” and “Environment.” Studies published in English and conducted in different countries were also selected for the analysis. The guidelines published by reputable organizations such as the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control prevention (CDC), and the Ministry of Health have also been used in this study.CONCLUSION:The results of this study have shown that the COVID-19 virus, in addition to human damage and mortality, also affects the environment, and the damages and losses resulting from this pandemic may be identified later. Water pollution, increasing chemical pollution in the air, and increasing the production of nonbiodegradable waste are of these issues. For this purpose, it is recommended that, in addition to trying to improve the control of this pandemic, other environmental aspects in disinfection methods and disposal of dry and wet contaminated waste should be done more accurately and based on standard protocols. Infectious waste, in addition to the problem of standard sanitation, will become a major challenge that pollutes the environment. Based on this, it can be said that if home quarantine is observed voluntarily, in addition to reducing the risk of the SARS-CoV-2 and reducing the volume of visits to medical centers, it can be associated with another positive achievement, which is the reduction in waste production and protection of the environment.
