Purpose: to analyze the relevance of the problem of epidemiology and prevention of acute respiratory diseases, influenza and COVID-19 in the conditions of martial law using an analytical search of sources in the Scopus scientometric database.
Materials and Mehtods. A search query on the specified topic in the scientometric database Scopus for the period 1993–2024 found 355 scientific works. An analytical review of them was carried out with the distribution by years, countries, universities and world-class scientists.
Results. Regardless of the military situation in the country, acute respiratory diseases, influenza and COVID-19 will continue to be one of the most urgent medical and social problems due to their ability to spread rapidly epidemically even in the warm period of the year, the appearance of new genetic variants of the SARS-COV virus 2, high morbidity, often severe clinical course and risk of developing complications dangerous to human health, especially in older persons and those with medical risk, exacerbation of chronic diseases and, as a result, mortality. This is confirmed, in particular, by the increase in the incidence of COVID-19 in August this year. Therefore, analytical analysis and development of adequate models for monitoring, assessment, epidemic situation and timely response to threats of epidemic development with methods of timely impact and prevention of the spread of the disease are relevant. The issue of continuation of special anti-epidemic measures in the conditions of martial law, which is accompanied by population migration, the formation of organized collectives, problems of access to timely medical care in certain territories, is relevant.
Conclusion. According to the results of an analytical review in the scientometric database Scopus, the issues of epidemiology of acute respiratory diseases, influenza and COVID-19 in the world remain relevant, in particular, the largest number of studies on this topic were conducted in the leading countries of the world: USA, Great Britain, Australia, Germany, India, China, etc.
