ABSTRACT
The past two decades have seen several viral-epidemics, causing great loss of human lives. The recent COVID-19 epidemics emerge as serious-global-threat to human civilization, public health, agriculture, travel, socioeconomic, education and even clinical research also. It has no specific therapeutics, and effective treatment options. Though the middle and upper classes are able to manage, but the low income households are really suffering. So Government of India wants to reorient the COVID-19 crisis by developing policy initiative. So it is focused on the consumption of nutritious as well as traditional medicinal weed vegetables and fruits, for preventive measures against human-diseases which are naturally infected with different pathogens caused diseases and significantly decreasing food production. Though pesticides are the most effective means of control, but they are costly and not environment friendly. So, it is emphasized on the multiple-intercropped weed vegetables fruits plants of the 4 plants species viz., amaranth, cucumber, cowpea, and okra plants, and determines the effects on pathogens infected diseases;Root Knot and Mosaic Virus. After harvesting, of these 4 plant species, amaranth and cucumber received maximum infection, forming the ―Eco-Friendly-Highly-Economical-Potential-Biomedicines-Cover-Catch-Weed-Vegetable-Fruits-Crop-Plants‖, conserving ―Biodiversity-Conservations-Sustainable-Climate-Health-Development-Green-Socio-Economic-Implications-Agriculture‖, though all are highly susceptible to pathogens and the farmers would be double benefited;by controlling diseases, and by marketing. In biomedicines, weed-vegetables fruits OR the plant-Mosaic-Virus has been developed as antigenic epitopes derived from the vaccine targets-COVID-19 infectious epidemic disease agents, and the chimeric virus particles, use in vaccine formulations or treatments, as one of the most-powerful cost-effective emergency-healthcare-easily-available safe-edible prepare-able easy-applicable future-personalized-potential-biomedicines act as ―Preventive-Measures and Safe-Alternative-to-Live-Replicating-COVID-19-Vaccines‖, by increasing our natural-immune system, which is one of the milestone events amidst many important changes in the past decade that have necessitated formulation of a new-outlook and strategy for preventing-―Future-Pandemic-Pathogens-of-21st-Century-Advances-Research-Diagnosis-Treatment-Control-Enriching-Food-Security-Biodiversity-Agriculture-Green-Socio-Economy-Medical-Science-and-Technology-Communication-Applications-Innovation-Issues, based on the theme ―Vision 2040‖ that would help policy-makers. © 2020, Editorial board of Journal of Experimental Biology and Agricultural Sciences.
