COVID-19 is a highly contagious and deadly illness. Without an efficient vaccine or treatment, personal protective equipment, hand hygiene, and social distancing are the best preventive measures. Polymers, nanotechnology, and 3D printing technology have played significant roles in researching and treating COVID-19. Additionally, the article discusses the impact of COVID-19 on the environment and its positive and negative effects.
One of the lethal illnesses that humanity has ever seen is COVID-19 irrefutably. The speed of virus spread is high and happens through polluted surfaces, respiratory droplets, and bodily fluids. It was found that without an efficient vaccine or specific treatment using personal protective equipment, preventing contamination of hands, and social distancing are the best ways to stay safe during the present pandemic. In this line, polymers, nanotechnology, and additive manufacturing, or 3D printing technology have been considered to probe, sense, and treat COVID-19. All aforementioned fields showed undeniable roles during the COVID-19 pandemic, which their contributions have been reviewed here. Finally, the effect of COVID-19 on the environment, alongside its positive and negative effects has been mentioned.
