As frontline health care workers are most exposed, it becomes more difficult for them to work in such environment. They need to take care of patients as well as for themselves by taking proper preventive measures. As 'Ayurveda' an ancient old science, well explains about preventive and immunity boosting principles, everyone is looking towards Ayurveda for an effective solution to handle such situations. In the view of above points this research was carried out to assess the efficacy of Yoga modalities in boosting immunity against such communicable diseases in front line health care workers.
