Abstract:
With the outbreak of the Covid19 pandemic, the ways to prevent the spread of the virus challenged the privacy at national and international scope. Conflicting the right to privacy with other rights, such as protecting the lives and health of others or securing public interests requires taking an appropriate approach to balancing privacy protection with the need for reasonable and necessary information and action due to prevention of the spread of the pandemic. This article takes a comparative view; it uses library resources, studies the guidelines and follows practical measures at the pillars and legal status of the conflict between privacy and citizens' right to health and the fight against the Covid 19 pandemic in Iran and France to address the questions whether control of pandemic can be one of the exceptions to the need to protect the privacy of individuals, and if so, what the legal principles and rules governing this response are. In order to answer these question, the author emphasizes the legal gaps in the current legal system of Iran, both in the field of substantive laws and in the field of defining organizations and technical institutions whose existence and powers are derived from legislative channels. It is argued that the privacy, as one of the most vulnerable areas of fundamental rights and its provision mechanisms in the event of widespread diseases as an emergency situation, should be comprehensively supported in light of specialized legislation based on universal principles of human rights. It is emphasized that providing public health should not act as an extra-legal tool to violate the right to privacy, and governments can make decisions and take action in this field within pre-defined legal and technical frameworks.
