Covid-19 is a contagious infection caused by the newly identified corona virus, which was originally seen in Wuhan city, China, in December 2019. It has now spread all over the world in a very short time of a few months. This is a brand new virus so scientists are trying their best to understand it. There is a lot to learn about the corona virus. Overall, it has been estimated that the corona virus can survive for 3 to 6 days at different material surfaces and for several hours in the air. It is mainly spread by droplets containing saliva or droplet particles when an infected person coughs or sneezes and that is why the virus sometimes lands on the surface. Hands touch many surfaces and come in contact with virus and get contaminated, from these contaminated hands virus can transmit to the eyes, nose or mouth. When the virus enters in to the body the person becomes infected and get ill, thus to stop the spreading of infectious corona virus rapidly, keep hands away from contaminated unknown surfaces, wash hands regularly using either soap or water and maintain physical distancing, and avoid social gatherings. These are considered to be as the most important activities to prevent the spread of the virus. However, the question arises, what should we do to keep our homes away from getting contaminated from virus and how can we fight the virus? During the study, we will discuss methods and chemistry for preventing and controlling the spread of corona virus. Chemistry plays a key role in understanding the structure of the virus and in developing chemical preventive measures, and also introduce new drugs to cure Covid-19 infection. The collaboration between Chemists and biomedical researchers and also the interdisciplinary interactions between different branches of the chemical community are all together essential to develop the needful result in time. This study relies on the literature available online. Still further new studies, researches are required to eliminate and prevent infection.
