We live in a time when the corona virus (Covid-19) has affected the lives of all people on Earth. Covid-19 virus is an epidemic disease that poses many medical, social, political, and legal challenges. In the age of Corona, many people pledged to do virtuous deeds. They promoted justice, courage, generosity, honesty, practical wisdom, etc., helped their peers, paid attention to the elderly and the weak, and came out successful and proud in this test. Others, by hoarding basic items and neglecting the poor and the elderly and escaping from the burden of their social responsibilities, failed the test of virtue and made viciousness their profession. This article, which has been done through a descriptive method and content analysis, aims to investigate the role of ethical virtues in improving human life and reducing their suffering in the age of coronavirus. To this end, the main ethical virtues in the age of Coronavirus have been discussed and the results are insightful and we need them more than ever, as inequalities, lies, secrecy, unrest and cowardice and wrong decisions are very prominent. Justice to tackle inequality, honesty to deal with lies and secrecy, courage to face unrest, threats and cowardice, forgiveness for confronting selfishness, and practical wisdom is needed to make the right decisions. Awareness of virtues and acting on them will improve the lives of human beings and reduce their suffering in the age of Corona. Ethical virtues enable us to consciously choose our current limitations instead of being harsh and immoral, and to live a good life for ourselves and others. %U https://jer.znu.ac.ir/article_250935_ff2ec0010d7a360d3ca5f3ed3e3d5fb8.pdf
