Why is it important?
COVID-19 pandemic is claiming more lives. The death toll has become ten-fold since the time this article was written. It is important to try existing drugs while new treatment modalities are developed.
Perspectives
This work describes the probable solutions as a scientifically estimated solution for COVID-19 infection at a time when people in the scientific community keep on repeating the phrase: "there is no treatment". It is inspired by certain personal observations, research and interactions of the author. I also intend to conduct drug trails as well as passive immunization trial in COVID-19 patients to find a formidable solution to this pandemic.
