Abstract
In this article we present a short and informative review on growth and impact of novel corona virus appeared in 2019. Almost entire world has been is the victim of this life-threatening virus. Here, we have discussed the growth of the COVID 19 in different parts of the world and how they are mathematically modelled. We have also discussed how different mathematical models predicts the minimisation of the growth by predicting the minimum days of lockdown. Further, the effect of effect of lockdown in everyday life and its societal impact are also highlighted.
