“…On May 24, 2021, the World Health Assembly, in a decision-making event on global health, opened a new pandemic treaty established by the European Union and its 27 member states, with the purpose of strengthening preparedness and responses to health emergencies, due to the deficiencies of the international system in addressing issues pertinent to the pandemic. This treaty brings with it the responsibilities of the members of the states in the entire government of our society (Blom et al, 2021).…”

The COVID-19 pandemic brought an overload of health systems, with the search for beds to support the demand of patients hospitalized for COVID-19, the heterogeneity and availability of resources in the public and private spheres, was evidenced throughout the pandemic, demonstrating different organizational policies in different regions of Brazil to face the pandemic. To understand the challenges and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil, focusing on the coping policies adopted and their consequences on public health, a literature review was conducted. There was a need to understand the panorama of government actions and their effects on reducing the transmission of the virus, on the response capacity of the health system, and on the social impacts. This review is based on the investigation and analysis of the existing scientific production in the literature, providing a comprehensive compilation of information, covering various topics, allowing the identification of relevant knowledge gaps that can serve as a basis for future research. The country's economic policy needed to use financial resources to face the crises of the pandemic in the sectors of science, education, health, technology and social protection. This crisis resulting from the pandemic on a global scale also provided a crisis of the sustainable development goals (SDGs), fostering reflections to restore the progress of the SDGs. It is observed that the COVID-19 pandemic has provided negative impacts on the entire world population, stimulating a gap for the reflection of policies to cope with pandemic outbreaks.

“…The geopolitical power struggles in which the pandemic treaty project is embedded will be reflected, without doubt, in the varying degrees of enthusiasm with which WHO member states engage with the negotiation process. Non-state actors already began their scramble for participation in the treaty making process the moment that EU President Charles Michel launched his initiative 12. Against the backdrop of diversified global health, in which power relationships between wealthy nations (mostly in the global north) and low and middle income countries (mostly in the global south) have shifted, and in which non-state actors yield considerable financial, agenda setting, and normative power, the extent of the involvement by representatives of civil society, science, and corporate interests in the drafting of the treaty is destined to be hotly debated 13…”
