Abstract: Like the countries of the world hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, Algeria has seen its economic and social situation deteriorate, by being already weakened by the collapse of the oil rent, the engine of internal growth, in particular since 2014. This article wonders about the effects of this combination of crisis (economic and health), which is considered severe, on Algeria. With this in mind, an examination of the economic situation before and during the health crisis was adopted in order to support the avenues of reflection for adéquate public policies. These will have, from our point of view, two main axes as a priority. The economic and social smoothing of its simultaneous analyzed effects, with the aim of preserving the social character of the State which is at the heart of Algerian society, and secondly the internal recovery which will guarantee the resilience and sustainability of our economy, this revival remains conditioned, even if the pandemic situation ends, by the structural economic reform which will ensure the transition towards a more diversified economy, this one is urgently needed.
