Background and objective COVID-19, as the most challenging global concern in recent years, forced countries in the world to adopt strategies to manage and deal with its consequences. The experiences of countries in this field can be used to plan for future pandemics. This study aims to identify strategies for managing and coping with the COVID-19 pandemic and find the necessary facilities for their implementation.
Method This is a systematic review. The data were collected by searching for related studies in Web of Science, Scopus and google scholar and were finally analyzed to identify the strategies and facilities using the MAXQDA software, version 2020.
Results Three main categories of strategies were extracted including elimination strategies, suppression strategies, and mitigation strategies. There were 29 subcategories including complete lockdown, closure of borders, economic support for businesses, providing correct and timely information, research and development of vaccines, and vaccinations. A strong economy, proper organizational culture and structure, software/hardware infrastructure, and financial flexibility were identified as facilities needed for the implementation of strategies.
Conclusion To cope with critical situations such as the COVID-19 pandemic, governments should adopt and implement proper strategies before the occurrence of a crisis to have the best performance and cause less damage to people.
