Brief Summary
|
in view of the no treatment available for COVID-19 infection as on date, there is a need to investigate the potential of ayurvedic preventive medicine. Classical texts of Ayurveda have emphasized the out break of such pandemics in the name of "Janapadodhwamsa" and narrated a specific preventive protocol. This is an attempt to observe the preventiive role of Ayurveda protocol in police personel / Healthy volunteers working in the vicinity of covid-19 facilities. |
