Abstract
One of the global crises that challenged the whole world in recent years was the epidemic crisis of the Covid-19 disease caused by the spread of the corona virus. Although this disease started from a local market in a small city in China, it quickly spread to local communities and then to distant geographical borders. The reason for the rapid spread of this disease compared to previous global epidemics was the intensity and extent of human communication and today's global economic relations. Although this epidemic was considered a natural event in the first place, due to the extent of its consequences, it became a human crisis in the field of global health and security in all human societies. The approach of different countries in managing this crisis was different. But what most countries used, especially at the beginning of this epidemic, was active control or decisive suppression. This research, which was carried out with a descriptive-analytical method, shows that the Iranian Government was able to use special and extensive medical and hospital capacities, inactive defense organization and the timely entry of military units into the field of crisis management and Especially, using people's participation in the production of medical products and collecting people's help in providing the needs of the vulnerable groups, manage the corona epidemic in an acceptable manner despite the weak start, even though this country was faced to sanctions that had made many problems.
