Abstract

The pandemic declared on March 11, 2020, showed the weaknesses of health systems in front of the crises. The work shows as roots of the problem: lack of quick responses, market failures in the health economy, lack of planning, forecasts and risk analysis. Observing the events, all over the world, nor planned and contingency measures nor all the available solutions has being used. The discussion shows too, that it is possible with new technologies to mitigate the impacts of these failures and it is possible to change the focus of current assistance not only for cure, but for prevention at a lower cost. We prospected that there are possible solutions if the focus of the current health economy will changes into an economy of prevention and personal health, reducing the risks of future pandemics and their impacts and, above all, using all the new technologies available to live again.
