The aim of the article is to present the role of hospitals in emergency situations and to analyse their performance during the COVID-19 pandemic. The article uses the method of analysis of available sources and statistical data and the method of diagnostic survey, a categorised interview technique, focused on the research problem concerning the evaluation of the performance of hospitals by medical personnel during a biological threat such as the pandemic.
