Abstract
The outbreak of COVID-19 has had a significant impact on global health systems, economies, and societies. In response to this public health crisis, governments and healthcare facilities around the world have implemented various epidemic preventive policies and hospital strategies to combat the spread of the virus. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of these measures in controlling the COVID-19 outbreak. The study employs a qualitative research methodology to analyze the impact of epidemic preventive policies and hospital strategies on the transmission and containment of COVID-19. The findings indicate that a combination of stringent public health measures, rapid testing, contact tracing, and vaccination campaigns have been instrumental in reducing the spread of the virus. However, challenges such as vaccine hesitancy, misinformation, and resource constraints have hindered the effectiveness of these strategies. The paper concludes with recommendations for improving epidemic prevention policies and hospital strategies to better combat future outbreaks.
