Abstract
The pandemic spread of COVID 19 caused by the novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV- 2)
produced a tremendous effect on the life of humanity across the globe. The epidemiological studies
revealed the drastic spectrum of SARS-CoV 2 infection ranging from mere flu-like symptoms to severe
respiratory suppression within a short period. Initially, cases have been confined in the emerging
point, Wuhan, China. But, within a few months, it has spread all over 212 countries around the
globe and presently has become a severe threat to human life. Even though it is a severe acute respiratory
syndrome virus, recent reports came with multiple organ effects of SARS-CoV 2, suggesting
the virulence potential of this novel virus to sweep the planet in the absence of a proper vaccine or
therapy. In this review, we discuss the multi-organ pathophysiology of COVID-19 infection, together
with the treatment methods adopted and innovative diagnostic methods used.
