Summary/Abstract: The present work does offer an analysis which does concern the relationship that does exist between on one side the concepts of integrity and freedom of human conscience while on the other side is the normative activity which is elaborated due to the fact that the time period we are living in is a particular one into which everyone of us has seen his own usual way of life deeply troubled. On one side a struggle is carried on against the clock in order to find a vaccine which could be able to render immune all of the people worldwide against the infectious disease denominated as Covid-19 so that it could no more appear and endanger the people’s lives. On the other hand there are a lot of people throughout the world who do criticize upon the preventive measures which have been imposed by the authorities, who do deny the positive role of the vaccine and who are organizing civil opposition protests against these taken measures declaring that they are doing so in order to protect democracy. In the present work we are attempting an accurate analysis of the present situation as well as the formulation of an appropriate answer to the question: is the compulsory suspension of activity for churches as well as for other cult shrines an infringement brought to the freedom of conscience or is it not? We are also formulating a personal point of view in what does concern the question if the preventive measures imposed through the instauration of the emergency or respectively the alert states are or not contradictory in respect to the rights and liberties of the citizens as these are understood within a democratic society? And should we move further: do the currently enforced norms which do concern the citizen’s right to life render legitimate this type of already taken actions? In order to formulate an objective answer to each of these issues we have chosen to analyze the current legal frame which does concern this matter. We have as well made use of a retrospective survey upon the role held by the procedure of vaccination during the former socialist regime.
