The COVID-19 pandemic has undoubtedly brought and has still been bringing a number of changes to national legal regimes concerning civil disputes. In addition to the tremendous increase in the number of civil disputes, there are also specific legal areas in which these disputes arise as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The most common civil disputes arising from such circumstances concern employment relationships, cancelled travel arrangements, delays in fulfilling contractual obligations, but also compensation for damage caused by the COVID-19 infection. Various frameworks in which infection with COVID-19 can occur, such as organized trips, visits to restaurants, large events, but also visits to hospitals due to medical treatment require an attempt to respond on issues of potential claims for compensation for damage resulting from failure to act. However, the focus of our attention is on cases of compensation for damage suffered due to corona virus infection. In addition, it is interesting and challenging to focus on a group action (ger. Sammelklage) lawsuit for COVID-19 infection in the Austrian ski resort of Ischgl.

Sejak awal tahun 2020 terjadi peningkatan jumlah kasus infeksi virus COVID-19, yang sebelumnya dikenal dengan nama 2019-nCov. Diketahui hingga bulan Februari 2020 sudah terkonfirmasi lebih dari 70.000 kasus positif infeksi COVID-19. COVID-19 diketahui merupakan virus dari keluarga coronaviridae, yang juga merupakan keluarga dari virus SARS-CoV dan MERS-CoV yang pernah menyebabkan wabah pada tahun 2002 dan 2012 silam. Patogenesis COVID-19 belum diketahui secara pasti, namun diduga mirip dengan patogenesis SARS-CoV dan MERS-CoV. Rerata mortalitas COVID-19 adalah 2.3%, lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan mortalitas SARS-CoV dan MERS-CoV. Outbreak COVID-19 juga diduga dimulai dari sebuah pasar penjualan makanan laut lokal pada musim dingin, lingkungan yang hampir sama pada saat outbreak virus SARS. Pada artikel ilmiah ini akan dibahas secara mendalam mengenai definisi operasional yang dapat dipakai dalam manajemen pasien dengan dugaan infeksi COVID-19. Akan dibahas pula manifestasi klinis dan tata laksana pada pasien dengan dugaan dan konfirmasi infeksi COVID-19.
