The current situation of COVID-19 in India.

The COVID-19 pandemic has now risen to a global health crisis across the globe. This novel virus outbreak has challenged India's economic, medical and public health infrastructure. Health care professionals and researchers around the world are looking for an effective treatment regime for COVID-19. The number of people infected by COVID-19 in India crossed 9.74 million; nearly eleven - months after the country reported its first case. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare of India (MOHFW) has taken numerous measures to raise awareness on COVID-19 and the necessary actions to control the spread of the virus. The central and state governments are formulating several wartime protocols to achieve this goal. The MOHFW has implemented the new clinical management protocol to treat COVID-19. Besides, the Ministry of AYUSH has also provided guidelines to use conventional preventive and treatment strategies to enhance immunity. The national recovery rate has increased to 94.66% and the reported fatality rate is down to 1.45, due to "test, track and treat". MOHFW and Ministry of AYUSH are the two pillars of health care to prevent and manage the current pandemic outbreak in India. Since, there is no specific drug or vaccine effective against COVID-19 infection, exploring every possible option for prevention and treatment is of great importance.
