In the year 2055, Dr Pratham received an award for discovering a new coronavirus. As he goes down memory lane, he remembers the summer of 2020. Back then, he was a naughty six year old boy, called “Bholu’ affectionately by his family. An illness called Covid-19 was spreading all over the world. Everyone had been forced to stay inside their homes during the lockdown. All of a sudden, Bholu’s happy and carefree life was turned upside down. Instead of normal, physical school, he had to learn to adjust to attending online classes. He also had to learn to play all by himself as he could not meet his friends. Staying away from his school and his friends, Bholu became miserable and lonely. Then one night, in his garden, he met Kovi, a baby coronavirus. From that moment, an unexpected friendship began. Playing together and talking about the pandemic and science, they found an enchanted purpose. Finally, Kovi made Bholu promise something that transformed Bholu’s life forever.
It was during the winter of year 2019 when Covid struck. In a matter of days, the virus stealthily spread at an alarming, breakneck speed all over the world, leading to devastating loss of lives and crippling of economies. Like all biological entities, it had to have a purpose. To search for that purpose, Prof. Sujata Sharma of All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi undertakes a memorable expedition on her imaginary spaceship into the solar system.
It was during the winter of year 2019 when Covid struck. In a matter of days, the virus stealthily spread at an alarming, breakneck speed all over the world, leading to devastating loss of lives and crippling of economies. Like all biological entities, it had to have a purpose. To search for that purpose, Prof. Sujata Sharma of All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi undertakes a memorable expedition on her imaginary spaceship into the solar system. She encounters all the nine heavenly bodies of 'Navagraha' and their corresponding Warriors in White in AIIMS and other leading hospitals of India. Using a heady combination of molecular medicine, astronomy and Vedic astrology, she understands the nuances and eccentricities of the virus. At a celestial level, the expedition begins from the Sun, Prof Randeep Guleria and progresses to other planets and warriors, eventually spanning the entire galaxy. At a terrestrial level, the journey starts from New Delhi to Chandigarh via Bengaluru, zipping through Mumbai and Varanasi, onwards to Noida and finally ending back in Delhi. This exhilarating and inspiring voyage in the middle of the deadliest pandemic of the world helps her to finally discover the elusive Covid's purpose.
