WHO declared COVID-19 as a global pandemic on March 11 stating that the disease can be controllable if proper precautionary measures taken by the States and people. It is reported that more than 126,140 people have been infected with this disease across nearly 114 countries. Till now little over 4,600 deaths have been reported due to Coronavirus in the world. A comprehensive approach is the need of the hour to prevent this deadly disease from spreading. Therefore, US$ 675 million has been sought by the international community to protect States having weaker health systems as part of its Strategic Preparedness and Response Plan.
