Abstract: Disaster Management (DM) is a crucial issue for populated countries like Bangladesh, particularly the capital city, which is overcrowded and exacerbates the Covid-19 pandemic's severity. The study focuses on the pandemic administration of the COVID-19 situation in Bangladesh, focusing on emergency response periods. It identifies various strategies prescribed by the government and non-government institutions, such as partial lockdown, full lockdown, limited movement, and conditional zone identification. Mobile purification amenities, isolation zones, and key health facilities can help mitigate the impact of the pandemic at the periphery and local levels.
Despite challenges in controlling travel restrictions, mass COVID-19 testing facilities, and social distancing, prompt international support and cooperation among government, health specialists, and the public can help mitigate the adverse consequences of the disease. Administrative and bureaucratic officials are pioneers in controlling the COVID-19 pandemic, with a special focus on health workers working for the people of Bangladesh. It is essential to capture and prepare for future disasters, whether man-made or natural, to ensure a smooth transition to a more stable and resilient society.
