Understanding the level of compliance with WHO recommendations during the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, actors could use these results as a foundation for establishing more effective policies in the COVID-19 situation. The research method is based on recommendations from the WHO. Specific recommendations were collected and analyzed from January 2020 to June 2021 by disabled persons and their families, governments, medical institutions, service provider, social welfare facilities and community areas.
