Citizens' freedom of expression in the field of public health is closely related to other concepts such as national security, public morality, rights and freedoms of others And with justifiable restrictions on its expression by citizens in a number of international instruments, including Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights; Article 29 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights; The principles of Syracuse and General Comments 31 and 34 are challenged because governments use a variety of ways to promote public health, In the event of diseases such as corona with a high prevalence, they can carry out coordinated and principled struggles based on global standards. In this study, international documents that could impose suspensions or restrictions on public freedom of expression in the field of public health (such as the outbreak of coronavirus) have been studied in a descriptive-analytical manner, Because the authors of this article believe that absolute freedom of expression in the field of public health promotes many consequences, including promotion of the use of non-medical methods in the fight against diseases among the people And restrictions on freedom of expression in cyberspace, advertising, and news can be imposed or temporarily suspended.
