Summary/Abstract: The year 2020 has started with an unprecedented situation in humanity’s recent history by globally extending cases of SARS-CoV-2 virus infection, which has led the World Health Organization to declare pandemic status. In Romania, the COVID-19 pandemic did not only come with social and economic restrictions, but also with a whole series of psychiatric trauma, anxiety, isolation and uncertainty of tomorrow. The surgical mask has become an indispensable accessory without which access to closed spaces and crowded areas is no longer possible. The aim of this paper is to try to present, from its own perspective, issues related to society’s evolution in a social and psychological plan, continuing with technological progress. Also, worth mentioning are the legislative changes during this period, as well as the transfer of education from the traditional form to the online. I believe that this subject is very topical and needs to be addressed from as many perspectives as possible in order to understand the scale of the transformations it has brought to today’s society.
