During the pandemic, the state provided special assistance to vulnerable groups of the population, special conditions were created for it. First of all, products were distributed to help large families, people with disabilities, pensioners, then the state helped financially. The pandemic has widened the gap between the rich and the poor, leading to increased inequality, unemployment, and rising food prices, primarily affecting to socially vulnerable groups. The main goal is to study the assistance provided by the state to the socially vulnerable groups of the population after the quarantine and to identify its inefficiencies. The pandemic has exposed deep inequalities and significant gaps in the coverage, comprehensiveness and adequacy of social protection. The COVID-19 crisis has confirmed the important role of social protection, and the importance of social protection as an economic stabilizer has increased.
