Abstract

Introduction: The covid-19 crisis has shaked the healthcare system globally, Policemen being the frontline warriors have played a crucial role in fighting covid-19, they are also at higher risk of getting infected because of their inevitable movement even in this lockdown. Several state governments have given Ayush preparations as prophylactic medication to their frontline workers and police staff. The AYUSH ministry advisory has also helped citizens boost their immunity using simple preparations. This probably is the reason why Covid-19 has not spread uncontrollably in India.
Materials and methods: A retrospective cross-sectional survey, with a standard questionnaire to assess the role of Ayush immune boosting kit to fight Covid-19, among Mysore city police.
Results and Discussion: Overall the study gave a significant result in terms of infection positivity rate and combating the stress of covid-19 duty among those who used Ayush immunity kit compared to the other community who are not used that.
Conclusion : Ayurveda is a holistic science. More than a medical system it is a way of life.
