the COVID-19 pandemic difference between countries, in the international comparisons of COVID-19performance of countries, and in the experience with COVID-19 of different subgroups within countries.International scholars are needed to understand the reasons behind the long-term strategy differencesbetween countries and why certain populations have been protected and others left unprotected during thisCOVID-19 era.The COVID-19 crisis is finding the unknown vulnerabilities of many countries, as well as allowing someto show and perform a myriad of unknown resiliencies and strengths. In analysing the source of strength,and vulnerability, we have to explore the myriad dimensions of society and the new inequalities and newsocial issues that have arisen. The analysis of COVID vulnerability must be understood as analysis notonly of the health resources and systems but also the aspects of the society that become important forspreading or alleviating contagion or decreasing or increasing the level of disease mortality.For the Turkish experience, the Syrian integration process is an essential social process that has beenanalysed by many social scientists in the education, health, economy, and social amity and solidaritydimension. Our paper is the first to look at the Syrian integration in the context of COVID-19 andunderstand the specific health vulnerabilities for the Syrian refugee population, which are in a uniquelegal and socioeconomic position in the overall Turkish society.
