Animated GIF showing changes in feelings of social isolation among adults age 50 to 80 from 2018 to 2024. Line graph showing 27% felt isolated from others some of the time or often in 2018, but went up to 56% in June 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, then trended downward to 46% in 2021, 44% in 2022, 34% in 2023 and 29% in 2024 Data from National Poll on Healthy Aging
