A new major epidemic foci of corona virus disease 2019 known as COVID-19, previously known as 2019-nCoV have been identified and rapidly expanding throughout the world without traceable origin since early 2020. The disease has drastically increased and the affected number of countries, states or territories reporting infection to WHO was more than 2001. The 2019 novel corona virus disease outbreak was instigated from Wuhan, Hubei province, China at late December 2019 and affirmed as a public health threat emerging of International anxiety on 30th January 2020 by WHO2. International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) declared “Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus (SARS-CoV2)” as the name of novel corona virus, because their genetically similarities with SARS outbreak in 2003. The present review focuses on morphological, genetical characterization of SARS – CoV – 2 as well as the clinical traits and clinical therapies for COVID – 19 endemic up to date. The novel coronavirus emergence awaken the echoes of SARS-CoV pandemic in past decades. Yet, with having best technological advance, the exact medication is still a question. It might be a great lesson to the world to equip to deal with most recent emergent viruses in future. The current work will give a deep understanding of CoV -2 to researcher for the further studies.

Введение. В последние 2 года серьезной проблемой для всего мирового сообщества стало распространение новой коронавирусной (CoV) инфекции COVID-19 (COrona VIrus Disease-2019). Ввиду сложившихся событий в лечении COVID-19 активно стали применяться новые молекулы и уже зарегистрированные лекарственные препараты, доказавшие свою эффективность при других заболеваниях. Цель исследования: оценить эффективность применения препарата экулизумаб у пациентов с тяжелой формой течения COVID-19. Материалы и методы. Проанализированы 3 клинических случая применения препарата экулизумаб в составе комплексной терапии у пациентов с тяжелой формой течения COVID-19. Для оценки эффективности лечения проводился мониторинг основных клинико-лабораторных показателей, а также показателей, характеризующих воспалительный процесс при коронавирусной инфекции: общий анализ крови, биохимический анализ крови, проанализированы уровни таких показателей как ферритин, С-реактивный белок, интерлейкин-6, лактатдегидрогеназа и мембраноатакующий комплекс. Результаты. На фоне проводимой терапии выявлено снижение концентрации основных маркеров воспаления относительно исходных значений. Заключение. Комплексная терапия, включающая экулизумаб, облегчает течение заболевания, позволяет сократить длительность пребывания пациентов в отделении реанимации и интенсивной терапии, укорачивает срок их пребывания на искусственной вентиляции легких, тем самым снижая процент летальности. Background. In the past two years, the incidence of the novel coronavirus (CoV) infection COVID-19 (COrona Virus Disease-2019) has been a serious problem for the global community. Considering these circumstances, new molecules and already registered drugs that have proven their effectiveness in other diseases, began to be actively used in COVID-19 treatment. Objectives: to assess the effi cacy of eculizumab in patients with severe COVID-19. Patients/Methods. Three clinical cases of eculizumab use as a part of complex therapy in patients with severe COVID-19 have been analyzed. To assess the treatment efficacy, the main clinical and laboratory parameters and indicators of inflammatory process in coronavirus infection were monitored (clinical blood analysis, biochemical blood test, levels of ferritin, C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, lactate dehydrogenase and membrane attack complex). Results. Under the therapy we found the reduction of concentration of the main inflammation markers relative to the initial values. Conclusions. Complex therapy with eculizumab facilitates the course of the disease, reduces the stay duration of patients in the intensive care unit, shortens the period of artificial lung ventilation, thereby reducing the mortality rate.

Abstract The pandemic of “Corona Virus Disease 2019” or COVID-19 has taken the world by storm. Majority of nations of the world have been challenged by the novel coronavirus, which is supposedly of zoonotic origin and is known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The present work attempts to evaluate the spread of COVID-19 in India. The methodology of assessment uses SEIR (Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Removed) model to establish the impact of socio-behavioural aspect, especially social distancing, affecting the numbers of COVID-19 cases per day. The lockdown initiated by Government of India (GoI) scenario is weighed against a scenario with a possible initiation of community spread due to crowded gatherings in India. The resultant changes, as against the lockdown scenario, has been reported in terms of the increase in the number of cases and stretch of the timeline to mitigate the COVID-19 spread. Impact of environmental factors like temperature and relative humidity have also been analyzed using statistical methods, including Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and Correlation. It has been found that the spread of cases is dependent on environmental conditions, i.e. temperature and relative humidity. This study is expected to help the policymakers and stakeholders to device an improved action plan to alleviate the COVID-19 spread, especially in India.
