My Viewpoints:
I always get inspiration from this superb quote- “Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing” delivered by great philosopher-writer-inventor, Benjamin Franklin. From earlier in my student life at UPENN, Philadelphia, I felt a curious urge to simplify the complicated and cutting-edge scientific research news in form of short articles or blogs which will be easily comprehendible for anyone. Therefore, driven by the passion as “make science simple”, I am continuing my journey as a scientific writer and editor.

Book summary:
The recent outbreak of Covid-19 throughout the world has become a major concern of public health. The responsible virus SARS-CoV-2 as well as its genetic variants have spread to almost all nooks and corners of the world and are taking a toll on human lives. Since the World Health Organization (WHO) declared this infectious disease a pandemic, almost 3 million people have died. Importantly, Covid-19 does not make distinctions between economic status, land boundaries, ethnicities, ages, or genders. Breaking the chain of further transmission for Covid-19 has undoubtedly been a huge challenge and
responsibility for research and medical sciences. While this deadly virus continues to disseminate silently, it is of utmost importance to know the overall effects of Covid-19 infections on human health. The main idea behind writing this book is to provide a complete scenario of the Covid-19 spread mechanisms and bring scientific awareness about all the possible health complications and related severities. The concise yet illustrative discussions inside the book will provide clear and conceptual
briefs regarding the various signs, symptoms, and outcomes linked with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Most importantly, going through this book will help the reader become more cautious yet less anxious about the current pandemic. Our efforts will only be successful if this book adds scientific awareness to our society through our reader community. Let’s not forget that the current global crisis due to the Covid-19 pandemic has once again compelled us to check reality, emphasize science and medicine, and grow compassion to protect our communities.
