Abstract The fight against the pandemic is not going well-but not for the reasons many people with political ideologies believe. A pandemic occurs when each infected person on the average infects more than one other person. It stops when each infected person infects less than one person. The end of a pandemic does not imply that the disease disappears-only that there are small local outbreaks and no large outbreaks. One starts with three observations about this pandemic. Recent worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, for example, has put tremendous pressure on pharmaceuticals scientists to be in quest of new drugs and vaccine to treat such deadly disease, and at this point, nobody knows what price tag has been estimated to develop such a vaccine by multi-drug companies involved with research and development of the drug. With recent growth in technology of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its sub-component such as Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL), dealing with epidemic of COVID-19 pandemic in a global form and overwhelming of data and consequently information and thus our knowledge of having power to deal with this devasting disease is way beyond our own human brain intelligence comprehension to process, thus we need to relay on AI, ML and DL innovative technology to handle all the aspects of such measure with a proper counter-measure. Moreover, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) with its components of Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) is changing and enhances the discovery of a drug that deals with COVID-19. AI, ML, and DL, along with other technologies such as Nanotechnology, are anticipated to make the quest or search for new pharmaceuticals by fat out much quicker, more cost-effective and cheaper as well.
