Currently, despite the change in the course of diseases, attention to infectious diseases and their integration has decreased. The prevalence of remerging infectious diseases has led to the need for appropriate preparation programs. There are still problems in controlling infectious diseases with the outbreak of coronavirus. The outbreak of the disease affected many countries in a short period. Therefore, by examining the actions of the two countries, it is possible to gain appropriate experiences in dealing with infectious diseases. This study was conducted using a gray literature review to examine all applied actions for the response to COVID-19 epidemics and their impacts on the prevalence of this disease in China and Iran. Examination of the documents shows that disease prevention is the most critical action, and we have witnessed a decrease in the number of patients with this disease by the introduction of prevention policies. The implementation problems of quarantine programs were meeting the basic needs of the people and continuing to implement this program. The issue of education was also one of the leading problems.
