The consequences of the pandemic caused by the spread of the COVID-19 virus have led to existential concerns. As a result, the human race, realizing the brevity of life, began to pay attention to existential issues. In order to identify this problem, a survey was conducted as part of the research project “The Emergence of Existential Experiences in the Worldview of Kazakhstanis in Connection with the Pandemic”. This is a way to take an empirical view of human existential considerations in order to conduct a deep epistemological and axiological analysis of the meaning and content of human life during a pandemic. The abstract presents the existential reflections of modern people, based on the results of the survey. Thus, the relevance of the study of the problem of a person and the meaning of his life appears as a need, which is significant not only in social but in personal terms as well.

Key words: existential experience, pandemic, life, humanity, responsibility, COVID-19.
