Drug discovery takes 12-15 years and around 1.2 billion dollars .Finding the drug molecule is the crucial and first step which takes 3-4 years.We have used Artificial Intelligence to generate new molecules which can act as potential drug for covid-19.It is well known that previously Insilico Medicine have validated drug generated by AI for fibrosis disease in Mice in just 46 days thus reducing a lot of time.During pandemic people can't wait longer for drug.Even vaccine have not been proved fully safe yet.Now we need support for the next step which are synthesis of the molecules,in vitro and in vivo testing.Then it can be later sent to preclinical and clinical trials once in vitro and in vivo is successful
