The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of information technology to response COVID-19 pandemic. By drawing on an understanding of research synthesis as the interpretation of qualitative evidence gained from literature review of previous articles, journals, and research. The main research question of this paper is "What is the role of information technology in the successful handling of the COVID-19 pandemic?". From this research we can conclude that during the COVID-19 pandemic there was a clear evidence that technology played an important role in the success of pandemic handling.
