A novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) caused pneumonia, spreading globally with no current vaccine or treatment. This paper proposes a hypothetical clinical protocol for prevention and treatment of COVID-19.
Area of Science:
- * Infectious Diseases
- * Virology
- * Public Health
Background:
- * Pneumonia-like symptoms were first reported in Wuhan, China, on December 31, 2019.
- * The causative agent was identified as a novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), a relative of MERS and SARS viruses.
- * The virus spread rapidly, causing severe illness and fatalities globally, with no approved vaccine or treatment.

Cancer Vaccines
Cancer vaccines come in two categories: preventive (prophylactic) and treatment (active). Preventive vaccines, such as the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, protect against viruses that cause certain...
Development of Immunocompetence
The initial cells that migrate from the fetal thymus settle within the skin and epithelial tissues lining the mouth, digestive tract, and in females, the uterus and vagina. These cells, including skin-based dendritic cells, serve as antigen-presenting cells, playing a key role in T cell activation.
