•Loneliness and isolation: Back to pre-pandemic levels, but still high, for older adults
92% Informative
Loneliness and isolation among older Americans have mostly returned to pre-pandemic levels, but still high, for older adults.
More than one third of people age 50 to 80 feel lonely, and nearly as many feel isolated, a new study shows.
The findings are published in JAMA by a team from the University of Michigan Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation .
New study builds upon evidence collected by U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy , M.D. , M.B.A. and his team.
Rates in 2024 for those who live alone were lower than for those living with others.
AARP Foundation has created an initiative called Connect2Affect to help older adults combat social isolation and loneliness.
