The aim of the work is to show the full range of measures to prevent a pandemic both at the level of laboratory research and the application of information technology at the stage of early detection of viral diseases, and at the level of organizational and legal measures on the part of the state, corporations and international institutions. The article discusses various approaches to early diagnosis of viral diseases, in which the base of virus samples play a critical role, in particular, in the diagnosis of COVID-19.3 Examples of technologies developed by the giants of the information industry to identify signs of COVID-19 disease in the process of self-diagnosis are given.4 Remote medical monitoring allows round-the-clock medical monitoring of cases of COVID-19 disease in conditions of home isolation, thereby reducing the need for infection protection systems and reducing the impact on healthcare providers.5

Salmonellosis continues to be a major health problem in developing countries, Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi and Salmonella enterica serotype Para-typhi A are common causative organisms for typhoid and paratyphoid fever, respectively.1 These bacteria are commonly found in the tegument or the intestinal tract of Schistosoma mansoni adult worms. The role of schistosomes as a source and vehicle of Salmonella infection has been well established.2 Sera from patients with hepatosplenic schistosomiasis were found to have reduced antibody activity against S .typhi and S. cholerasuis compared with normal controls. Further, chronic persistent Salmonella bacteremia has been described in association with S. mansoni infection.2 The association of Gram-negative bacteria and helminthes parasites has been reported previously. The above mentioned clinical evidence largely suggests that the bacteria-parasite association may provide the persistence of Salmonella infection.1

Diseases are not new to the humans’ as we have learnt to cope up with a variety of contagion and contagious infections. Way back in the 18 th century cowpox was a terrorizing clinical condition and as time progressed, the era of rabies and TB was an issue of health concern. But time has been the eternal evidence to validate the fight of mankind against these clinical manifestations. However, over the last few months, the world is being taken by a swing by an invisible, nanoscopic biological particle which was later named as COVID-19 or in short form is represented as nCoV-19 where n designate the uniqueness of the virus and is rightly called as novel corona virus 19 (nCoV-19). Though the outbreak of the pandemic gained its pace in 2020, it was initially discovered in December 2019 in the Wuhan province of China. Hence the virus is represented with 19 as a suffix. The disease which initially started as an epidemic soon started its universal form and became a severe pandemic all over the globe. The current article is an attempt to comprehend the facets of COVID-19 otherwise called as novel corona virus which is very often compared to the SARS outbreak in 2002 in China. The article also attempts to disclose various measures undertaken by the government and private firms to curb the intensity of the contagion. The current article emphasizes on clinical signs and epidemiological characteristics of novel corona virus disease and endeavors to brief out the possible steps to curd the rapid spreading of the disease.

Exophiala is a heterogeneous genus of dematiaceous (darkly pigmented fungus) taxonomically positioned in the family Herpotrichiellaceae, order Chaetothyriales, class Ascomycete.1 It is responsible for subcutaneous and invasive human infections, can cause phaeohyphomycosis and chromoblastomycosis by traumatic inoculation and systemic invasions mostly in immunocompromised hosts.2‒4 Exophiala dermatitidis is implicated in severe illnesses in humans, such as pneumonia and keratitis and might lead to fatal brain infections. It has been reported as colonizer of the lungs of cystic fibrosis patients.5 This specie seems to have neurotropism, with significant morbidity and mortality.6,7 It has also been isolated from a wide range of surfaces such as soil, glacier water, bathrooms, dishwashers, steam baths, contaminated areas with aromatic hydrocarbons, indoor habitats connected to water sources and high temperatures.8‒11 In the human intestinal tract there are only a few reports from Germany, Nigeria, Netherlands, Slovenia and United States.4,12,13 The aim was to investigate the presence of Exophiala species in the gastrointestinal tract from a pediatric population in Venezuela.

The efficient use of limited water resources is an urgent issue for the Republic of Moldova. In field experiments at the level of cenosis water-use efficiency (WUE) is defined as yield (Y) divided by applied water.1 As the measure of applied water or water consumption of the crop usually used the evapotranspiration (ET)-the mass of water evaporated in the cenosis during the growing season by the soil (evaporation, E) together with plants (transpiration, T). E is included in water requirement since Briggs and Shantz (1913),2 in view to practical difficulties to estimate separately beneficial (T) and nonbeneficial (E) consumption of water. In connection with the use of portable gas exchange analyzers (simultaneously CO2 and H2O), it was proposed to evaluate WUE at the leaf level as a ratio of carbon dioxide assimilation (A) to water consumed, expressed as transpiration (T); the time-scale for defining WUE can be instantaneous (i).3

The declining habitats force macaques to migrate near human settlements. Due to the lack of food source from the forest caused by deforestation, macaques quickly learn to raid crops or garden from agriculture land. These raid incidents increase the chances of human-macaque interactions that can lead to other incidents. Macaca fascicularis and M. namestrina are susceptible to different dangerous biological agents that are transmittable to human due to the close proximity in genetics and geography. According to Pederson & Davies,2 cross species disease transmission is caused by three major factors and one of them is overlapping geographical distribution. Besides that, biological factors such as genetic similarity highly determine a successful transmission and infection.3 Close genetic relationships among host species might translate into similar immunological responses.3 As a consequence macaques living in such close distance with humans, are serving as a main source of disease transmission. While M. fascicularis is not currently a species of concern on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) list, whereas M. nemestrina is considered ‘Vulnerable’.4
