What are the implications of combating the pandemic for basic principles of the rule of law and for the various system levels of the law? Are there such things as best practices in pandemic control? Finally, can models and models of legal regulation of a pandemic be derived from the geopolitical context? The following contributions contain divergent national models of pandemic regulation. Conclusions and recommendations may be derived from this, which could be applied to the respective national legislation. As a normative consequence of these experiences, the question will arise to what extent the European legal framework must be strengthened, even harmonised.
