Social isolation 'increases death risk in older people'

 

A study of 6,500 UK men and women aged over 52 found that being isolated from family and friends was linked with a 26% higher death risk over seven years.

 

Whether or not participants felt lonely did not alter the impact of social isolation on health.

Worried for some of the people here.

The Somali old guys have this fixed. Over 52 and alone? put together a short stack, hop on a flight to Africa and married a young girl. The drama will keep you going another 2 decades.

^ Baashi,

 

whatever happened to that dream of yours of retiring to a bungalow in Kismayo, horta? are you not retiring soon, inaar-adeer?

[Baashi]

Nope. Not yet Kismayo is not safe as Hargeisa or Bossaso.

[Alpha Blondy]

i agree. laakin ''safe'' is a matter of perceptions. i hope you achieve your dream, one day...... Baashiioow, inaar-adeer.
