摘要

The status of COVID-19 all over the world is pandemic. Plants have therapeutic action in curing the various diseases since ancient times. In order to tackle the various types of diseases, plants play an instrumental role. The present review article deals with the utility of plants in tackling COVID-19. After referring to a number of research papers on COVID-19, it can be concluded that plants are the best source of medicine against COVID-19 with fewer chances of side effects. Plants over the globe contain certain phytochemicals that have their action on the cell membrane of corona virus, facilitates the killing of its components and compositions of DNA. This would lead to the death of COVID-19.The epidemic models on the meteorological data of cities from countries like China, Italy, and Japan lead to the conclusion that such types of models cannot lead to a final prediction of an outbreak of corona viruses. More studies need to be conducted regarding the spread of COVID-19 and also on the evolution of such viruses to predict its epidemiological impact. We all need to come together to fight it out, and also we need to chalk out the ways to prevent future pandemics too.
