Abstract
Since December 2019, an outbreak of novel corona virus disease was reported in Wuhan, China, which has subsequently affected more than 150 countries worldwide and is battling against this virus, trying best to curb the spread as much as possible. The ongoing outbreak has been declared by WHO as Pandemic, a global public health emergency and is leaving no stone unturned to control the pandemic, awaiting a vaccine for cure [1, 2]. There exist a dearth of literature that can guide researchers to study the impact of pandemic on physical and mental health of people worldwide
