Abstract: The crisis caused by COVID-19 differs from previously crises due to its particularities. Many countries have been affected by the pandemic, although not all have acted in the same way or imposed the same level of restrictions. This paper analyses the virus containment measures carried out by some of the European countries most affected by the pandemic. It concludes that those that acted early have been less affected. In addition, it examines possible policies to be developed at the European Union level to combat the crisis.
