新型冠狀病毒肺炎（COVID-19）引發的疫情迄今已經蔓延到世界各地100多個國家，三千多萬的人感染與近百萬人死亡，這形成全球醫療體系近一世紀以來最嚴重的流行病危機。尤其對於各種慢性病的常規護理而言，COVID-19的肆虐更是持續照護系統的重大挑戰。然而，控制疫情之外還需要採取其他相關政策與措施，以提供有效的及時和持續照護與未來的防範。作者統整台灣在疫情期間政府各部門協同醫療體系、全民照護、疫情管理和國外防疫政策，以提供讀者對台灣與世界防疫的現況了解與參考。

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has currently spread to over 100 countries, infecting over thirty million people and causing nearly one million deaths. The COVID-19 pandemic is the most serious pandemic crisis faced by the world medical system for at least a century. To address the impacts of pandemic prevention and control measures and of societal concerns regarding risks of contraction in healthcare environments, related policies and management must be adopted to provide effective care and future prevention. The author introduces the prevention policies implemented during the pandemic under coordinated medical systems, the National Health Insurance program, pandemic management, and national and international governmental organizations to provide readers with a reference for the current situation of the pandemic in Taiwan and the world.
