Abstract

The world is currently going through a situation where we can see rising deaths due to COVID-19. If these records continue to hike in the same manner, then the day is not so far when, we will contribute to this and take this list further. With an already strained healthcare system across the globe, all countries are plagued by the  emergence of the various waves of the pandemic. With the target to vaccinate the entire global population, the World Health Day 2021 with the theme “Building a Fairer, Healthier World” offers hope for a better, COVID-19 free world.
