The pandemic has put issues concerning both collective and individual health, health as a common and essential good for the individual, at the center of public decisions and individual priorities. It also stressed that health is a good that has an economic and social value, too, not only because dedicated products and goods are produced but also because the economy and work require healthy individuals and healthy contexts. Health is an essential asset for the security of a country (economic, military, commercial), and it represents an inalienable right of citizenship, that is capable of guaranteeing freedoms. The data relating to the infections, the speed of spread of the virus, the number of countries, and the continents concerned showed that health has an individual, local, national and global character. That: that there can be no health for individuals if there is no health for all; and that environments and contexts must generate health starting from the workplaces, including those in charge of care. The pandemic has also highlighted how much new technologies, e-health, and telemedicine are useful in treatment processes. and itIt is possible to overcome the digital divide in the use of these tools, as well asand the pandemic revealed this along with the usefulness of robotics both for routine activities such as administering drugs, as well as continuous and widespread training, represents a strategic component of this new process. This difficult experience must become an important opportunity to rethink our health system, because we will no longer be the same.
