Abstract

The corona pandemic has impacted every aspect of human life. It has impacted people on a social, cultural, religious, political, economic, physical, and psychological level. Vaccine research organisations globally are working hard to prepare more and more vaccinations that will help people. Many health institutes are providing medical care to those impacted by the corona. This pandemic poses a threat to everyone. The goal of this work is to emphasise the need of interdisciplinary research during corona pandemics. The current study was conducted using secondary data. The research was purely theoretical. The results of this research depicts that interdisciplinary research is negligible during this pandemic. Medical field is focus point of all in the research view point.  Definitely this small attempt will attract the Governments, funding agencies, researchers and specialists from different fields to share a common platform to cope with the corona pandemic. Coronavirus is not just an issue of clinical science yet in addition a significant issue for different specialists like social researchers, financial experts, technologists, psychiatrics, analysts, sociologists, strategy creators, lawmakers and heads and so on. It is essential to put forth aggregate attempts to manage this pandemic. Interdisciplinary research is probably the most ideal ways to address all the affected aspects with this pandemic.
