ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 disease pandemic, representing a worldwide problem, has moved the world population into a position it has not experienced since World War II. However, there is one difference the problem has stricken not only Europe but the whole American continent, Asia and Africa. Solution to the problem can be divided into two levels, namely medical and social. At the social level, the only solution is crisis management, or simply prevention and crisis activities carried out by representatives of the governments, and the willingness of citizens to follow specific regulations. However, a combination of the estimate of risk and efficient regulations in compliance with medical care must pursue the sole aim, namely to stabilise and stop the spread of the coronavirus. One part of crisis management is represented by the proper documentation of particular procedures and the drawing of conclusions for the future. This paper is the result of conducting an institutional project at the University of Security Management in Kosice, and characterizes the position of the crisis management and rescue units in solving the pandemic in the Slovak Republic. In addition, the paper compares starting points of crisis management and measures taken by selected countries, and identifies the problem of the crisis management both at state and individual levels in Slovakia.
La pandémie due à la COVID-19 a placé le monde face à une catastrophe inconnue depuis la 2ème guerre mondiale. Encore celle- ci avait elle essentiellement impacté l'Europe quand ici ce sont tous les continents qui sont touchés. La résolution du problème doit se faire à 2 niveaux, médical et sociétal. Au niveau sociétal, la gestion de crise comporte sa résolution mais aussi le maintien de certaines activités et la prévention de sa résurgence, toutes du ressort des autorités mais dépendant fortement de l'adhésion de la population. Le système de santé est fortement impliqué tant par la gestion de la crise que par la prévention des rechutes, ce qui suppose de stabiliser puis couper la progression du virus. Cette gestion de crise doit aussi comprendre l'établissement d'une base bibliographique et la rédaction de procédures à utiliser dans un cas semblable futur. Cet article est le fruit du travail de l'utiviersité de gestion des risques de Kosice et détermine l'action des décideurs et effecteurs de résolution de crise en Slovaquie. Il compare aussi le début et la gestion de la crise dans d'autres pays et identifie les problèmes de gestion de la crise, individuels comme collectifs, en Slovaquie.
