Abstract

Several opportunities to investigate a variety of treatment techniques for the prevention of infection have arisen as a result of the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. The development of vaccinations against the coronavirus has been the focus of the efforts of a large number of researchers worldwide. It has been of utmost importance to administer treatment adequately for the illness while searching for suitable antiviral medications. This study aims to investigate the numerous causes of infections and the various treatments in use. Furthermore, it aims to create therapeutic and preventive options derived from plants that can be employed in conjunction with COVID-19 therapy.
