Abstract: The purpose of this research is to study the role of strategic scenarios in health security management as empirical evidence from Iraq in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to defining the health institutions' roles in the strategic scenario of health security and determining the level of technical and human preparations for workers in the Kirkuk health directorate through strategic scenarios, one optimistic and the other pessimistic, to confront the coronavirus, questionnaires were used to obtain data from 154 people for the study. The collected data was processed using SPSS software. The results of the research showed that the formulation of the pessimistic scenario had a greater impact on health security management than the optimistic scenario, and the study recommended the necessity of adopting strategic scenarios commensurate with the size of epidemics that could spread in the future in Iraq and the world.
