Summary/Abstract: The world nowadays is caught within the twirl of the acceleration age, where surprising factors cause fast, new evolutions. Human society should adapt its reactions and answers in order to keep up the pace with all the developments, mainly with those induced by information technology and by highest technology. Even the way institutions work and the way decision is taken should be done with flexibility, on the run, innovating.COVID-19 Pandemic comes onto this complex context, as another element that certainly causes alterations among almost all the domains of human existence.The impact is immense, evolving from the contaminated people’s lives to the highest geopolitical arena. Certain states’ capacity of making decisions “failing faster”, on the run, has been tested. It requires leaving aside the leaders’ ego or reputation and focusing on minimizing the negative effects, on considering the foreign know-how and the epidemiologists’ knowledge and also on cooperating with the local administration.
