Abstract

The coronavirus outbreak emerged as a severe pandemic, claiming more than 0.8 million lives across the world and raised a major global health concern. The study aimed to explore the current developmental status and management of coronavirus in Kerala. The pandemic that hit Kerala was looking like a striking outlier in the battle against the coronavirus in India. The virus had been in a controlled situation when the state borders were closed. In January, Kerala reported the first covid-19 case and the number of cases increasing steadily and it became a hotspot. In mid-July, it reported around 800 infections a day. The objective of this paper is to analyze the Kerala model to achieve the goal. It will examine the legacy of the Kerala model such as a robust healthcare system, safety measures, quarantine system, and mechanism of the spike protein. It also looks into the democratic strategy of Kerala and the combined effort of the healthcare system, public, and Government. We conclude that the Kerala model is still relevant and effective when compared to others.
