  • Support in industrial/manufacturing opportunities through India2022 and MedTechConnect networks.
  • Opportunity to raise funding from India2022 partners.

The assessment criteria will include readiness

for deployment, scientific validity, feasibility, and impact. Assessment will happen daily. In the next few days, we will select and help most impactful innovations that are quickest to deploy. 

Innovations can be under following categories: screening, diagnostics, therapeutics, vaccines, containment strategies, public health & other categories including but not limited to focussed technologies in

  • mobile health technologies for screening and homecare,
  • diagnostic kits and Point of Care tests,
  • protective gear and sterilization innovations for care providers,
  • digital triaging tools and risk stratifying systems,
  • low-cost ventilators and oxygen therapy units,
  • AI systems to assist critical care,

  1. 1=We need some binding agents ,which bind with virus and make it to not interact with other cell like cages…
    2=And another one is if we break the life cycle of virus by changing ph .
    3= May be the trapping and killing the virus is easy so it stops infecting other health cells ..

    May be my small idea helpful for the fighting against covid 19.

  2. We can try out some modified Sequences that attach to only RNA of infectious virus stop the life process or denature its infectious property by forming double standard. So, automatically its life process or infectious property will end .

  3. Specific antibodies ( monoclonal abs) against covid 19 from revoverd patients or using some siddha medicine compounds to for delete that viruses by stimulating our immune system or antiviral drugs of another saars family virus may be blocking covid 19 .

  4. If we able to find out genome sequence of covid 19. we can prepare an DNA or RNA vaccine which bind to particular viral sequence so that we can stop the viral genome to be replicate.

  5. Yes, this may be very helpful against covid-19.
    I m impressed by your answer.

  6. Sir actually our researcher do their level best still they are unable to produce antibiotics or vaccine..if they share their problems in social media this problem can be solved..as we know that in india there are several mbbs students msc students PhD candidate etc which may have any idea related to their problems..

  7. Can we used anti sense RNA technology for blocking ,replication of viruse or particular genome sequence which is act as antigens??

  8. Can we used anti sense RNA technology for blocking ,the replication of viruse or particular genome sequence (antigen sequence)??

  9. Use Eyurvedic cada ginger , tulsi ,termeric black ,lounge ,pepper, piper, lemon day in 10 time use with hot water

  10. Virus replication stop Karna padega.. lac opron ke throug Jo chies use multiple honi se rok saki usko use Karna chaheye… & Konsa factor use multiple honi Mai help kartha hai o Bhi pata Karna chaheye

  11. What if this viruse lives in the air as well as in people. Could some safe spray be found to wipe it out using aircraft and ground units

  12. Drug repurposing and combination drug treatment with good immune boosters would help to some extent to control the disease.

  13. Block COVID 19 RNA using antisense RNA technology

  14. If the corona virus is not able to live at high temperatures. Then we can give a hot water steam bath to the patients who are infected with covid 19,such that the cell membranes of corona can get ruptured and we can tolerate high temperatures. If it’s possible.then we can use this method.

  15. #Gopi chelasani
    No, covid-19 can’t be killed by hot steam bath because human body regulates body temprature if you continue treat with hot water chances of skin burn occurs.
