The governments all over the world are trying to reduce the risks of transmission and control the spread of this highly infectious virus that is making its way out and has infected almost 30,055,710 people according to WHO (up till Sep 18, 2020). Developed and developing countries in Asia confronted this pandemic before any other country as China reported the very first case on 31st December 2019. Developed countries (China, South Korea, Japan) got successful in suppressing the rise in COVID-19 cases while developing countries like Pakistan and India affronted many challenges during this pandemic due to lack of enough management and facilities.
