The current Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic that is caused by the virus termed SARS-COV-2, started from an apparently innocuous isolated incident in an unknown place and time. However, in a very short time, the matter of COVID-19 has become a world-wide pandemic, affecting the well-being of billions of individuals, causing hundreds of thousands of severe illnesses, thousands of death (still counting and projected to increase dramatically), unnecessary strains on the world's economy (perhaps triggering another world economic recession if not an economic depression like the ones we have never seen), and most importantly needless fear and distrust in the ability of the leadership to deal with it. The matter of COVID-19 and SARS-COV-2 is a case that was predictable pursuant to the "Theory of Chaos". It is submitted that because the leadership of United States National Institutes of Health, the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are guilty of dereliction of duties, they must voluntarily resign from their positions that they have occupied for far too long, and that it is high time that the United States Government drastically rethink its policy of the management of this country's biomedical research enterprise that each year pours over 50 billion dollars (all Agencies included) of the people's hard earned tax dollars into a black hole of scientific data that are not only useless but cannot be reproduced by other Scientific Researchers and by the "Scientific Researchers" who generated the "scientific data" in the first place. It is also submitted that had the leadership of United States National Institutes of Health, the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention read and studied the "Theory of Chaos" and the "Art of War", America would not be in the situation it is currently facing.

The corona virus disease, otherwise known as COVID-19, is an extremely communicable and pathogenic viral infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which emerged in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and has spread to almost all the countries in the world. The transmission of the virus is through touching of the nose, eyes, or mouth by a finger that has been contaminated through droplets on a surface when a carrier sneezes or coughs. Since the existing fingerprint devices are predominantly contact based, it implies that they can aid in the transmission of the virus. This paper discusses the application of fingerprint devices in notable places with high rate of COVID-19 infection as well as the threats to fingerprint technologies and the countermeasures. The need to change focus and orientation towards contactless biometric technologies as sure solution to the fear and animosity expressed towards contact-based fingerprint technology is also expatiated.

Introdução: a implementação de ações preventivas e de proteção foram preconizadas para reduzir o contágio Corona Vírus Disease-19 causado pelo vírus Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2. Os idosos residentes em comunidades rurais demonstravam dificuldades em se adaptar às novas medidas. Objetivo: interpretar os significados culturais atribuídos à pandemia de idosos descendentes de ucranianos residentes em zona rural. Método: trata-se de pesquisa qualitativa descritiva sustentada pelos referenciais da antropologia cultural e conduzida pelo Consolidate criteria for reporting qualitative research. Participaram de entrevistas etnográficas nove idosos informantes chaves, por via Skype e chamadas de vídeo pelo whatsapp, no período de março a abril de 2020. As entrevistas foram analisadas segundo domínios culturais. Resultados: Emergiram três domínios: 1- “Providência divina que gerou mudanças” - os idosos atribuem à pandemia o desejo de Deus para gerar um aprendizado e mudança de vida; 2- “O cuidado que vem de Deus e do médico para consigo e com o outro”- eles revelam práticas cotidianas para evitar a contaminação, como fazer o que o médico diz, tomar coisas fortes como os antigos, acreditar em Deus, ficar longe das pessoas que não moram na mesma casa, não sair de casa e não receber visitas; e 3 - “Sentimentos desagradáveis que podem adoecer”- eles apontam como consequências sentimento de tristeza e solidão, dificuldades em aceitar as mudanças impostas, incerteza no futuro. Conclusão: os significados atribuídos à pandemia permearam a intensificação e preservação das crenças e práticas religiosas, e a proteção para a doença percorreu o saber médico e popular.

Today the whole world community is facing an unprecedented pandemic of novel corona virus disease (COVID- 19) caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV- 2). The disease has spread glob- ally with more than 20.3 million confirmed cases and 2, 22000 deaths in India only as of May 4, 2021. Despite worldwide efforts, the pandemic is continuing to spread, and no system of medicine has any evidence-based treatment for COVID-19 as yet. The dimensions of pandemic require an urgent harnessing of all knowledge sys- tems available globally. Drawing attention on the Ayurveda classics, contemporary scientific studies, and experi- ential knowledge on similar clinical settings, depending on the stage of infection among individuals, in a popula- tion, Ayurveda system of medicine requires immediate implementation. It will facilitate learning, generate evi- dence and shall be a way forward. Keywords: COVID-19, Pandemic, SARS-CoV-2, Ayurveda, Immunity

The number of cases of the Covid-19 virus in Indonesia, especially Medan, has increased. Almost every day the number of PDP (Patients Under Supervision) or positive patients continues to increase. Medan city has set an emergency status for the corona Covid-19 virus since Mid-March and Medan Johor district sice early April has been designated as one of the sub-districts with the status of the Red Zone. To minimize its spread, the government is promoting a “Mask For ALL” program. The program is in line with the appeal of the centers for disease control and prevention, which recommends wearing masks for everyone who want to leave the house. Due to limited number of masks that are ideal for preventing the corona virus, cloth masks can also used as an option to protect against exposure to the corona virus. This is considered better than not wearing a mask at all when coughing and sneezing or when near other people who may have been infected with the corona virus. Fabric masks can be produced by sewing houses by using the patchwork they have. Becauses the materials in making masks do not require a lot of material, patchwork can be used and people who have sewing houses are also helped in the corona pandemic.

The emerging Corona virus strain (severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2)) harbors intricate in the development of corona virus infection (COVID-19)-induced pneumonia and subsequently ameliorates lung infection. Genome sequence and interventions reveal proximal resemblance of corona virus strain COVID-19 with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), transmittable to bats, suggesting similar primary hosts in the spread of infection. However, potential rapid human-to-human transmission has caused therapeutic challenges in treating a wide range of humans suffering from corona virus all over the world. However, up to now, no direct vaccines or antiviral drugs are available to treat COVID-19. Previously designed antiviral drugs and convalescent plasma are undergoing investigations as treatment for COVID-19 infected patients. Therapeutic challenges with regards to COVID-19 have prompted scientists to develop fruitful remedies to combat the pathogen. In this review, we address the role of current ongoing therapeutic strategies, , and complex mechanisms of adaptive immune system (B and T cells) to respond to viruses. Furthermore, we illustrate the current challenges in the treatment of COVID-19, managerial strategies, and ongoing and future perspectives.
