“…The CT scan paved the way for more effective treatment of deadly conditions like cancer, strokes, heart, problems, orthodontics, and accident injuries. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, CT was recently utilized to diagnose patients who had been diagnosed for lung infection viral pneumonia caused by COVID-19 and it was shown to be very sensitive [ 18 ]. Figure 3 shows the view of currently used CT machine in various places for detection of fatal conditions.…”

Bioimaging is a digital technology-based medical advancement which is still relatively new. It has to do with real-time visualization of biological processes. This innovative imaging technology combines anatomical structure with functional data such as electric and magnetic fields, motion which is mechanical, and metabolism to provide information on anatomical structure. It's a non-invasive procedure that gives you a bird's-eye view of the human body, with more depth and detail as you go. As a result, bioimaging is a strong tool for seeing the interior functioning of the organism and its disorders. Examples of bioimaging in the medical industry include X-ray and ultrasound pictures, MRI, 3D and 4D body images utilizing Computed Tomography (CT) scans, DEXA scans which is useful for assessing bone density in osteoporosis, and so on. Maximum-resolution, two-positive charge fluorescent excitation microscopy, fluorescence redistribution after photobleaching, and fluorescence resonance energy transfer are some of the recent advancements in biological imaging. It provides us a cellular-level means of obtaining photographs of the entire body, anatomical locations, organs, tissues, and biological indicators. It may be used to aid illness management and therapy, as well as to detect, diagnose, and characterize the problems in clinical settings.

“…In two new studies being carried out in China, convalescent plasma (obtained from fully recovered patients) are underway despite the limitations and it has shown some promise as a potential treatment for COVID-19 [ 27 28 ]. This may provide a new alternative approach to treat patients [ 29 30 31 ]. These studies or trials are also under investigation in the EU and the United States according to their respective protocols.…”

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the deadly disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) is a global pandemic that has severely affected lives and economies around the globe. The spread of this virus will be very difficult to contain if no vaccine is ready for implementation. This is because of the high human-to-human transmission rate of this virus and the fact that the virus is in the community spread stage. As of 31st August 2020, 25.3 million individuals have been affected by this deadly virus resulting in about 850,673 deaths. To combat the spread of COVID-19, more than 100 applicant immunizations are being developed around the world. Among them, eight have begun or will be soon beginning preliminary clinical trials. This paper provides a review of the current developments of potential COVID-19 vaccines around the world. It specifically discusses the recombinant vaccine produced by the University of Oxford and AstraZeneca (Cambridge, UK), the use of novel self-amplifying RNA technique to create a vaccine and the progress made by UNAID (US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) and World Health Organization (WHO). Furthermore, this review demonstrates the pharmaceutical prophylaxis and treatment protocols for COVID-19 by analysing the documentation set up by the WHO for up to date data with respect to the novel coronavirus of 2019–2020.
