Abstract :
By studying the history of civilization, we can
see that human beings can take steps in the development
and evolution of their civilization if they consider the
collective interest and consider modern moral frameworks
in their policies. In this regard, the history of pandemic
diseases such as COVID-19 is no exception. In this
viewpoint, by examining the most important historical
cases similar to epidemics on the one hand and comparing
quarantine policies against COVID-19 in China and Iran
on the other, we intend to draw on an evidence-based
summary of the factors influencing achieve the policies
adopted by the government. The choice of China and Iran
was made because the authors of this viewpoint had the
experience of being present in these two countries during
the Coronavirus and this opportunity has led them to
express their views from the perspective of a public
administration researcher on the subject. As a result of this
view, it became clear that the most important effective
policy in the face of the Coronavirus is quarantine, which
would lead to different economic, political, and cultural
conditions for governments and people to implement this
policy. Finally, we made our suggestions regarding the
implementation of this policy.
