Abstracts: – COVID-19 has dominated global discourse for the last 2 years as the pandemic impacts everyone, everywhere. There is growing evidence that people with disabilities and their families are particularly at risk during the pandemic, in terms of:  

1. Increased risk of death and hospitalization;  
2. exclusion from the COVID-19 response actions (e.g. information and vaccination); 
3. adverse consequences of COVID-19 control activities (e.g. lockdown and social distancing); and 
4. Negative impacts on health (e.g. reduction in rehabilitation care).
