Good question

In my opinion, scientific research in light of the Corona pandemic is in an exceptional case, everyone is waiting for the necessary vaccine for COVID19

Challenge with research is that some experts rubbish the work. While others appreciate. You think that your work is unworthy. The parameter to evaluate research is its importance to the target audience.

I think that scientific research is currently going on the wrong track.

I think the challenge with research needs some experts to make the work more easily. The indications to evaluate research is its importance to the target goal.

Using different means of communication

In my view, there was a great scientific research trend to face this crisis in addition to that Corona gave many lessons to humanity not unexpected.

in my point of view, COVID 19 has taught every the great lesson of humanity the people who recovered from this pandemic are much stronger than they were before. now living on earth is competitive it gave us higher perspective i hope that once it would be over life will be much better

For me, I think it is bad.

No. It is absolutely off track. The system is rigged as evidence by the recent retractions from New England Journal of Medicine and Lancet the medical journals are rigged. The pharmaceutical industry in the hospital complexes are driving expensive and dangerous therapies.

I agree with the answer of dr Yousif .. about good communications.

Careful handling of research activities following health guidelines, safe data collection methods should be applied and communication strategy to be adaptable to cope up with present situation. Otherwise it will be on the wrong track.

This period is not a good time period for doing research

Here are good reference materials to your question.

For any disease the informations required for management include accurate diagnosis, effective treatments and efficacious prevention. These three directions are the focus of research especially for a new disease like covid 19. These areas are the direction of current on going researches across the world. Many researches have to be launched for same goal for example say treatment because we do not know which one will work, also regional differences both in disease manifestations and host factors necessitate repeating same or similar investigations. All these area are being addressed as if now. The global community is on course in researching in to covid 19.

There is a lot of time, but data is hard to come by

Eagerly waiting for good time. Exactly, now situation is unfavorable for us particularly for laboratory work.

I agree with dr Abdul Kaddus concerning lab works .. but in the same time now we can do agood review articles about COVID-19..

It's been only a few months, the full impact would be evident in the coming one year, but adaptation is the key to survival

Thanks for the question

An important question which needs intensive and comprehensive discussion. Well, there are researches going around and important findings are coming up. Although the disease and the pandemic need clinical management including drugs and vaccine, the social aspect has equal importance in controlling this pandemic and hence forth require social science researches. The researches are being conducted in different corners of the world, but with regard to environment in developing nations, the scholars are facing problem with carrying out timely research. In limited resource setting, it'd be wise to waive ethical clearance to the studies particularly to surveys where there is no risk or harm to the study participants, as these kind of studies help to bring forth the findings related to people's perception, understanding, problems they are encountering etc amid the pandemic which can be very insightful and may act as base to focus on and strengthen on public health measures. Moreover, it'd be wise to motivate more and more students, faculties, scholars and independent researchers to study and contribute in managing this public health crisis.

interesting question

By being optimistic hoping for the better situation to prevail.

No, I think that scientific research is currently going on the wrong track.

I agree with answer of dr Shirkaant Kulkarni concerning the optimistic.

I would appreciate the straight to the point question like this. Yes, a panoroma of research is going on related to Covid19, but it is too early to comment on the effectiveness of them. Having, said that more funds are required in the public health infrasturcture and more health system researches are warranted because the pandemic has exposed the lacunae of them both to the World.

Dear dr Isam, you are right if the research labs and centers remain closed.

Thank you dr Thaer Dawood for your recommendation.

It is so difficult.

We still need to make more research and scientific efforts to fight this disease

I think adopting magazines with the same old publishing houses is better known
