Abstract

The outbreak of pandemic COVID-19 mounts overall pressure on healthcare and modern societies. The intervention of nanotechnology will play a vital role in bringing multi-disciplinary ways of developing affordable, reliable, and powerful tools for diagnosis, personal protection, and new effective medicines. Moreover, employing nanosensors will significantly aid to diagnose the viruses even on asymptomatic patients. Likewise, the use of nanoscale fibers can optimize the protection affinity of personal protective equipment and facemasks and allows their reusability for medical and economical benefit. This research was designed purposely to highlight the perspective contributions of nanotechnology in the war against COVID-19 pandemic
