Abstract
It was 11 March 2020 when the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the name COVID-19 for coronavirus
disease and also described it as a pandemic. Till that day 118,000 cases were confirmed of pneumonia with breathing
problem throughout the world. At the start of New Year when COVID-19 came into knowledge a few days later, the gene
sequencing of the virus was revealed. Today the number of confirmed cases is scary, i.e. 9,472,473 in the whole world and
484,236 deaths have been recorded by WHO till 26 June 2020. WHO's global risk assessment is very high [1]. The report
is enlightening the lessons learned by India from the highly affected countries.
期刊介绍:
In recent years a breakthrough has occurred in our understanding of the molecular pathomechanisms of human diseases whereby most of our diseases are related to intra and intercellular communication disorders. The concept of signal transduction therapy has got into the front line of modern drug research, and a multidisciplinary approach is being used to identify and treat signaling disorders.
The journal publishes timely in-depth reviews, research article and drug clinical trial studies in the field of signal transduction therapy. Thematic issues are also published to cover selected areas of signal transduction therapy. Coverage of the field includes genomics, proteomics, medicinal chemistry and the relevant diseases involved in signaling e.g. cancer, neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases. Current Signal Transduction Therapy is an essential journal for all involved in drug design and discovery.
