Abstract
Here we assess countries' management of the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic using the reliability measure P(X ≤ Y). In this management, all kind of strategies as interventions deployed by governments as well individuals' initiatives to prevent, mitigate, and reduce the contagion of this disease are taken into account. Also, typical customs practiced locally and influencing contagion are included. Regarding a number of countries and rates associated to deaths and incidence, orderings of countries about such management are established, by using the measure of reliability indicated above. In this way, countries are distinguished from each other depending on how they managed this pandemic. This kind of analysis may be extended to the management of other diseases.
