Did you know that loneliness is linked to an increased risk of chronic disease? Harvard researchers found that loneliness and/or social isolation were associated with a 29% increased risk of heart attack and 32% greater risk of stroke. This risk level is similar to that of light smoking or obesity, according to the researchers.

During this time of social distancing, it is important to find safe ways to stay connected and maintain our social support networks. So take care of yourself by picking up the phone and calling a family member or going for a walk with a friend!
