During the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, the Special Regulations on Prevention, Relief and Revitalization for Severe Pneumonia with Novel Pathogens (hereinafter referred to as ＂Special Act＂) was enacted for a certain duration in addition to the Communicable Disease Control Act. The article aims to study the added provisions on epidemic prevention according to three tiers: incentives and assistance for preventive and control measures, reinforcing existing regulations, and increasing liability and use of personal information for specific offenders. Furthermore, we analyzed the differences between the Special Act and the Communicable Disease Control Act and provided suggestions for the revision of the Communicable Disease Control Act in the future.
