The COVID-19 pandemic is considered as the most alarming global health calamity of this century. COVID-19 has been confirmed to be mutated from coronavirus family. As stated by the records of The World Health Organization (WHO at April 18 2020), the present epidemic of COVID-19, has influenced more than 2,164,111 persons and killed more than 146,198 folks in over 200 countries across the globe and billions had confronted impacts in lifestyle because of this virus outbreak. The ongoing overall outbreak of the COVID-19 opened up new difficulties to the research sectors. Artificial intelligence (AI) driven strategies can be valuable to predict the parameters, hazards, and impacts of such an epidemic in a cost-efficient manner. The fundamental difficulties of AI in this situation is the limited availability of information and the uncertain nature of the disease. Here in this article, we have tried to integrate AI to predict the infection outbreak and along with this, we have also tried to test whether AI with help deep learning can recognize COVID-19 infected chest X-Rays or not. The global outbreak of the virus posed enormous economic, ecological and societal challenges into the human population and with help of this paper, we have tried to give a message that AI can help us to identify certain features of the disease outbreak that could prove to be essential to protect the humanity from this deadly disease.
