We should find whether the novel coronavirus entered human population with full preparations to attack man or it was so naïve in the beginning and then learned to adjust with the human host (mutation and adaptation) and became successful. From the evolutionary sense, any pathogen would tend to choose its habitat only to settle. The above revolutionary postulates of the pathogen should be valued only for academic purpose and also for taking several measures to control the pandemic.   Whenever a pathogen enters a new host (by accident or internally) it would tries to understand the new habitat or host, would adjust and then see whether it can continue in the same host.   During the early phase, if the microbe faces hostility from the host, in all probability, the pathogen might hop onto to another host if an easy transport system (transmission possibility) and recipients are available.   Otherwise the microbe may fight with the host immune system and may ei...

It is an undisputed science that the God may give man (to the believers) peace and hope in the mind but the God doesn’t give clothe, food and money or anything that we can measure physically. Therefore the logic or rationale of God only gives us everything; both pain and pleasure doesn’t hold any water. If we are willing accept the above tenet then we can also easily accept the fact that the novel coronavirus when invades all of us, all of us may not suffer from illness, the virus may not replicate in all of us equally, may not results in COVID 19 and finally may not cause death.   But today the world wants to see the novel coronavirus as the most deadly pathogen that man has ever seen till date.   The fear is so acute; many people may even be willing to enter inside liquid nitrogen or cryo-preservation container or a deep freezer to save the life.   The sad truth is that people may die in liquid nitrogen container or deep freezer but not the virus and henc...

Kudos to Baba Ramdev for introducing a wonder drug to offer 100% cure to the global pandemic COVID 19!   The purpose of the article is not to delayer the science and merit of the claim or the drug that was introduced by Baba Ramdev.   The sole objective of the article is to expose the situations and the compelling realities that were created purely by our medical science and the so called scientists’ conglomerate for Baba Ramdev to invent and hurriedly advertise his wonder drug. There is a famous saying, what we cannot solve and comprehend, we should never over-hype or exaggerate.     Our scientists and medical fraternity behaved like ‘Alice’ by treating novel coronavirus as wonderland.   They attempted to caricature a petty pick-picketer – coronavirus as fugitive has not only brought disgrace to science but also destroyed the economy and livelihood of millions of people.   Any straight question if we ask to WHO (World Health...

It is now quite clear that India in particular and the world at large may not escape from the corona maze game that it had started /created .   We have adopted measures similar to that of a moth to a flame ; self-defeating, self-destructive and self-denying.   We took measures and strategies that are more brutal to people than to the virus.   We have to realize that the virus is also intellige nt and so shall be its creator – evolution.    We need to ask several fundamental questions to WHO (World health Organization) because WHO is keep learning about the virus day by day and no one knows which class; pre-KG or UKG education WHO has competed by now with reference to novel coronavirus.   Most of the questions we must attempt to answer also from the premise of evolution and only then we can truly reflect how unwise WE are in taking several measures to contain the virus. Why should a deadly virus SARS-CoV2 or otherwise called as novel ...
