Communicable disease, Coronavirus disease 2019, Pandemic

Ayurveda is the ancient life science, which deals with the study of life. When infectious diseases are being spreading through human populations across a large region or even worldwide, then it is known as epidemic. An epidemic over a wide geographic area and affecting a large proportion is called a pandemic. It can be correlated to the Janapadadhwansa (destruction of community) in Ayurveda. The novel corona virus 2019 named as (nCoV- 2019), a bull for Janapadadhwansa is highly communicable which has created a deadly pandemic situation in the world. Since December 2019, the virus has turned the globe by killing about 2 lakh individuals accounting from all around the world. Till now there is nothing which can stop this virus to turn out to Janapadadhwansa until we strictly follow the hygiene laws. The corona viruses which were broken before, in earlier decades were not that fatal. But this virusids much more novel and infectious. Janapadadhwansa can be correlated with covid-19. Epidemic in Ayurved (Janapadadhwansa) is described by Acharya Charak and Sushruta. Aetiology of Janapadadhwansa(destruction of communty) are adhrama (sin), derangement of the air, water, land, season. Ayurveda recommends purification therapy such as emesis, purgation, enema etc., proper rejuvenation, atonement and enchanting of mantras. In Ayurveda epidemic diseases has been mentioned in context of Janopadadhwamsa (destruction of community). So for prevention of such condition we can adopt the foot note of Ayurveda mentioned in context of Janopadadhwamsa.
