SARS-CoV-2 is a highly infectious and deadly coronavirus that first appeared in late 2019 and has since created a pandemic of the acute respiratory disease known as "coronavirus disease 2019" (COVID-19). This literature aims to summarise current knowledge of COVID-19’s clinical, epidemiological, structural, and pathological aspects, as well as the timeline of spread and recent progress in India’s immunization effort. A literature review was conducted through the database of Google Scholar and the official website of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare Government of India. All the latest studies regarding knowledge, prevention, and details related to COVID-19 were utilized. The outcome indicated that India is the world's second-most affecting coronavirus region. The adaptability of mutant virus and disobedience to CAB are the leading causes of the rising spread, therefore, having common symptoms of fever, sore throat, cough, and general weakness. This study reported that the number of COVID-19 cases has spread throughout the world, has caused an increase in morbidity and mortality in the population. The improvement of the immunization programme, on the other hand, has opposite impact on mortality rate.
