The national COVID-19 screening program in Iran is a successful measure of the response to the outbreak. Two of the main challenges that suffered painfully during the outbreak were sanctions against Iran and the circulating fake news and misinformation on social media networks. So, it was critical that sanctions and barriers to providing essential supplies to Iran would be stopped, or to be postponed at least until In order to control the outbreak faster and efficiently in Iran, social distancing must be more rigid, widespread testing must be performed to cutting down the transmission chain, and US unilateral economic sanctions must be restricted to import essential goods. All interventions during the outbreak helped to flatten the curve of COVID-19 cases in Iran.	./cache/cord-313904-745u0si8.txt	./txt/cord-313904-745u0si8.txt
