The aim: To study an impact of the epidemiological situation on enforcement of the rights and freedoms in global informational space at international, regional, and national levels (by the example of the Republic of Poland and Ukraine).Materials and methods: This research is based on empirical and analytical data of WHO, conventional norms on protection of rights and freedoms, anti-epidemic legislation of Ukraine and the Republic of Poland, reports of European and international institutions on human rights. Over 100 sources of information have been discovered, including regulatory legal acts, academic papers. Dialectical, comparative, analytical, synthesis, system analysis methods have been applied.Conclusion: The priority of human rights and freedoms over the public interest in the fight against the previously unknown and rapidly spreading coronavirus while delivering medical care – is a paradigm that seems to be reconsidered under “syndemic” conditions in connection with “infodemic”. Epidemiological situation and human rights are interdependent in a globalized world. Channels of formal and informal informing, as well as objective, current, full enough information content, make a “person–state” communication effective. During a pandemic, regional and international communication must be complete and regular.
