“…Based on the interim guidelines of WHO, most of the countries opted for several non-pharmacological measures such as social distancing and masking along with lockdown of varying time intervals. Though a huge global economic loss was incurred due to enforcement of restriction on outdoor activities [42], but lockdown was propounded to be the most effective way to mitigate this dreadful situation in the absence of any treatment procedures or therapeutic/prophylactic agents. Lockdown implementation proved to be a reasonably effective strategy even in India (despite being one of the most populous country in the world), as by the end of 4th lockdown (31st May 2020), total number of confirmed infection cases in India were 182,143 ( Fig.…”

Worldwide, millions of individuals have been affected by the prevailing SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, a robust immune system remains indispensable, as an immunocompromised host status has proven to be fatal. In the absence of any specific antiviral drug/vaccine, COVID-19 related drug repurposing along with various other nonpharmacological measures coupled with lockdown have been employed to combat this infection. In this context, a plant based rich fiber diet, which happens to be consumed by a majority of the Indian population, appears to be advantageous, as it replenishes the host gut microbiota with beneficial microbes thereby leading to a symbiotic association conferring various health benefits to the host including enhanced immunity. Further, implementation of the lockdown which has proven to be a good non-pharmacological measure, seems to have resulted in consumption of home cooked healthy diet, thereby enriching the beneficial microflora in the gut, which might have resulted in better prognosis of COVID-19 patients in India in comparison to that observed in the western countries.

“…A contagion-focused study revealed that India should prepare for a health infrastructure crisis at present and an agonizing economic contraction in the near future if the government is unable to execute a proper policy framework [19].
