Abstract: The spreading of the new SARS-COV-2 virus on the planet had a devastating impact on the everyday life of the population, with manifestation on several levels, from the economic, cultural and social areas to the very essence of a human being. The lack of experience shared by the authorities in such a scenario, alongside the accelerated growth of cases and the high number of deaths, caused the countries all around the world to implement very restrictive measures, some of these affecting the fundamental rights and liberties of the people. The current paperwork will analyze the consequences brought upon an ordinary person, on a psychological and social level, by the new regulations adopted within the states in order to fight and prevent the current global infection. A comparison will be made between the State of emergency and the normal day life, revealing the key factors in behavior change and reactions. As references, we will bring into attention the dispositions from the Constitution, the Civil Code, and the Criminal Code versus the legal norms adopted during these last four critical months in Romania. At the end of the article, the conclusions will summarize the most relevant elements which tie up the results of the impact to the adopted laws.
