Introduction

Covid-19 is an infectious pandemic disease caused by novel Coronavirus, now called as a severe acute respiratory disease. The overall prevalence rate of Covid-19 worldwide is 9.94 Million, and it is 529 Thousand and 153 thousand in India and Maharashtra, respectively (Zhang, Wang, & Jia, 2020). There is no standard line of treatment established for the management of this pandemic. Prevention is the better option in this current dreadful situation, and the preventive aspect of this highly infectious disease is emphasized by modern science. However, the prevention of any illness is highly appreciated by Ayurveda, which is the ancient and holistic science of life. Such a pandemic situation is correlated with JanapadadhwansaVyadhi in Ayurveda (Agnivesha, 2020). The primary purpose of Ayurveda is the prevention of disease in healthy individuals and eradication of disease, which are curable (Agnivesha, 2020).

Immunity is the backbone of a healthy life. The immune system helps to protect the host from pathogens; they are minimizing damage to tissue. The immune system consists of an unlinked network of cells, lymphoid organs, and proteins that are strategically placed to ensure maximal protection against the infection (Walker, Ralston, & Davidson, 2010). Vyadhikshamatva is a crucial factor in the daily lifestyle of human beings for the prevention and recovery of the disease. That’s why prevention of this disease can be very well done by maintaining good immunity (Singh & Verm, 2012).
