INTRODUCTION
"Acharya Charaka ′′ in vimansthan has mentioned that '' Adharma ′′ is the primary cause of janapadadadwamsa ragas (Shukla and Tripathi, 2017a). Whereas "Acharya Sushruta ′′ in kalpasthan described its parameters, i.e. soil, air, food and water contamination (Ambikadutta, 2017). Exposure of Human being to a poisonous substance by ingestion, inhalation and contact with skin. Nowadays heavy metal toxicity is one of the reasons of Environmental contamination due to industrialization, urbanization and rapid economic development in industrial and agriculture activities such activities may cause contamination of water, air, soil & food due to this there is bioaccumulation of this element in human food chain& ultimately reach the human body. These are carcinogenic, and their chronic exposure in the environment causes many health problems due to their toxicity (Ali et al., 2019).
Covid-19 ailment induced through severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus two (SARS-COV-2). The irst case was seen in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. (SARS-COV-2 is a member of Beta coronavirus genus, genera of the coronaviridae family of viruses. It arises indirectly from animal species, i.e. zoonotic. It shows the closest genetic sequence like bat or snake (Lisa and Hiscox, 2020).
It occurs in individuals of all ages. It is transmitted from one individual to others by close physical contact. The incubation period is 14 days after which patient's shows symptoms include fever (85-90%), cough (65-70%), fatigue (35-40%), and sputum production (30-35%), shortness of breath (15-20%). No, speci ic treatment or vaccine is currently available but supportive treatment such as isolate the patient and send PCR test early, luid sparing resuscitation, empiric antibiotics and mechanical ventilation for ADRS etc. Thus, by comparing this pandemic condition to janapadadwamsa ragas, we can treat the patient according to Ayurveda and prevent the disease.
