2019 Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) occurred in Wuhan City, Central China, and has spread rapidly in many countries in world. COVID-19 is produced by a new coronavirus called the extreme acute respiratory coronavirus syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV2) [Recently identified as the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019- nCoV)] [1]. However, there was no official approval of an antiSARS-CoV-2 drug or vaccine due to the lack of sufficient evidence. Scientists are trying to improve COVID-19 by the new drugs and methods [2].
