Abstract

The epidemic diseases frequently experienced in human history have caused both significant loss of human life and many psychological, economic and sociological effects. Covid-19 acts as a sensor of the current situation at national, European and global level; the situation created by the Covid-19 virus is seen by the whole world trying to understand its tendencies, to decipher the causal relations and to anticipate the evolution. There is no doubt that the adage "nothing is more practical than a good theory" attributed to Immanuel Kant mobilizes specialists to expedite the development of specialized works that provide theoretical support in assigning meaning to the current and future situation that is markedly dependent of the evolution of this virus. The transition of the virus has an impact in all areas of activity, bringing with it an imminent wave of changes that are felt socially, personally, financially and extrapolated to the economic, political, diplomatic and international levels. Being one of the most widespread pandemics in the world, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused many losses in all areas of activity, but especially in tourism. In order to make inferences about the effects of COVID-19 on the tourism industry, it should be analyzed in comparison with the period before the pandemic. Thus, the role of this paper is to highlight the impact of the pandemic on tourism in Romania compared to the previous one. For this, a comparative assessment will be made in terms of the impact and rates of influence of the disease and its effects on accommodation structures, on tourism as a whole, but implicitly also on tourists.
