There is no doubt that the most critical issue is how to get more people to cooperate on epidemic prevention. The study topic is about the factors underlying cooperation during the covid-19 pandemic by using the game theory to analyze. In the paper, the author sums up recent studies about how communication, reputation, payoff structure can affect cooperation and provide some advice for prevention methods based on the discussions. According to the research results, communication, reputation, and payoff structure can affect whether people will choose to cooperate inside a group. Besides, making information more transparent and attainable, emphasizing the importance of reputation, increasing reputation reports on individuals and companies, and designing a proper payoff structure can be ways to contain the epidemic.
