An Overview on the Zoonotic Aspects of COVID-19

Disruption of pristine natural habitat has a strong positive correlation with this increase in pandemics and thus, the zoonotic aspects are the most important part to uncover scientifically. On the other hand, containment and mitigation are the two basic strategies to stop a pandemic. The route of infection is of utmost importance for any pandemic and often left behind in combating the fatalities in real time. The increase in recent pandemics, from ebola outbreak to ongoing COVID-19 havoc, exerts implicit significance in the search of zoonotic transmissions of the diseases. Thus, a conceptual summary has been made through this article in understanding the basic zoonotic mechanism of the disease COVID-19 based on available published data and schematic presentation has been drawn on the route of transmission, so far discovered.
