PANDEMIC SARS-COV-2 DEVELOPMENTS AND PROJECTIONS. SOME EUROPEAN COUNTRY CASES

Abstract: This article below sees the countries’ behaviours while a quick, although gradual resuming the economic activity previously interrupted by the pandemic crisis of Sars-Cov-2. There will be reviewed measures adopted, statistics, related policies applied since the beginning of this crisis and, where appropriate, expected for the immediate future in the governments’ agenda. Details, here including opinions inserted in this text, return in search of questions such as: (1) Why these countries and not those ones?; (2) Were these measures taken better or more efficient than the others?; (3) Were the earlier measures taken, e.g. in just primary moments of pandemic, more appropriate than the others for this exact reason, and which are these measures?; (4)What exactly makes these measures taken more credible?; (5)Who’s interest(s) and responsibilities for these measures, of course, as the country’s public authorities?
