Brief Summary  

Amid all the gloom spread across the world due to the outbreak of novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which has now infected more than a million people around the world, everyone is focusing on preventive measures. Ayurveda has been an intrinsic part of Indian culture be it kitchen species or usual daily regimen. Further to address the pandemic, Ministry of AYUSH has released certain guidelines for prevention of COVID through certain common kitchen species, herbs and practices.

In order to capture the effectiveness of such preventive measures, guidelines and Ayurveda advocacies, a community study is planned to capture the relative risk and incidence of COVID 19 among Ayurveda users.
