COVID-19 is an emerging viral pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2, which is the causative agent of unprecedented disease-causing public health threats globally. Worldwide, this outbreak is wreaking havoc due to failure in risk assessment regarding the urgency of the pandemic. As per the reports, many secondary complications which include neurological, nephrological, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, immune, and hepatic abnormalities, are linked with COVID -19 infection which is associated with prominent respiratory disorders including pneumonia. Hindering the initial binding of the virus with Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) through the spike protein is one potential boulevard of monoclonal antibodies. Although some drug regimens and vaccines have shown safety in trials, none have been entirely successful yet. This review highlights, some of the potential antibodies (tocilizumab, Sarilumab, Avdoralimab, Lenzilumab, Interferon (alfa /beta /gamma)) screened against SARS-CoV-2 and the most promising drugs (Favipiravir, Hydroxychloroquine, Niclosamide, Ribavirin, Baricitinib, Remdesivir, Arbidol Losartan, Ritonavir, Lopinavir, Baloxavir, Nitazoxanide, Camostat) in various stages of development with their synthetic protocol and their clinical projects are discussed to counter COVID -19.

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...
Infection
The chain begins with pathogens: bacteria, viruses, fungi, prions, or parasites such as protozoa helminths. These can be present on the skin as transient or resident flora, or they can be acquired from the environment. Identifying and treating the type of infection and...
