Introduction: From March 2020 to the end of 2022, the World Health Organization implemented various policies in what they described as a justified fight against a terribly deadly disease, COVID-19. These policies could not be criticized, and the few criticisms were silenced. However, the different countries of Europe, and especially their societies, responded in different ways to measures that affected physical health, mental health, and the economy. Methodology: This paper conducts a literature review, using secondary sources to compare statistical data according to the research question. Results: The review identifies phases of propaganda at the communication level, attitudinal responses, and engagement from different audiences. Discussion: The same global measures elicited different attitudinal responses depending on cultural substrata. Conclusions: Different attitudinal responses were identified both across countries within the same continent and across phases within the same country.
