There are various means to do that, and they are mainly medical and aimed at the health infrastructure and the health system as a whole. At the same time, it should be borne in mind that health infrastructure has not only a direct effect on the management of the pandemic, but moreover, it also has an impact on the competitiveness of economies. Improving or deteriorating health infrastructure has a positive or negative impact on national competitiveness, respectively. Linked to this is also the argument supported in this paper.

It is aimed at studying a number of economies and to identify the impact of the relevant health infrastructures on one of the most important economic indicators such as competitiveness.
