Abstract
The outbreak of COVID-19 has led to a global health emergency. Emerging from China,
it has now been declared as a pandemic. Owing to the fast pace at which it spreads, its control and
prevention have now become the greatest challenge. The inner structural analysis of the virus is an
important area of research for the invention of the potential drug. The countries are following different
strategies and policies to fight against COVID-19; various schemes have also been employed to
cope up with the economic crisis. While the government is struggling to balance between the
public health sector and the economic collapse, the researchers and medicine practitioners are inclined
towards obtaining treatment and early detection of the deadly disease. Further, the impact of
COVID-19 on Dentistry is alarming and posing severe threats to the professionals as well. Now,
the technology is helping the countries fight against the disease. ML and AI based applications are
substantially aiding the process of detection and diagnosis of novel coronavirus. Science of
Robotics is another approach followed with an aim to improve patient care.
Keywords:
