In the context of a global epidemic, major challenges of many countries have been how to ensure balances between effective state interventions in personal health issues and normal economic activities. At present, we have tended to focus only on the issue in the immediate future, but in the longer term, we should also look at the changes in the overall state of social life, especially social relationships among people. Therefore, in this paper, I will try to present the importance of a different arena from the nation states and their economies by examining the concept of social capital and its relation to health.
