Even in the normal circumstances, persons with disabilities require special attention. In a volatile situation like that of the COVID-19 pandemic, persons with disabilities (PwDs) need even more attention and care. It is important to know that they require equitable, accessible, affordable and quality healthcare even during the pandemic. Therefore, prioritising their vaccination first is the need of the hour. Unless we do this, it is natural that the PwDs will seem side-lined in the massive vaccination drive of the COVID-19 pandemic.
