The Problem:
With around one third of the world population currently subject to self-isolation, the spectre of loneliness, regularly affects as many as more than 40 percent of seniors according to a University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) study. There is a 45% increased risk in mortality in seniors who reported feelings lonely. Loneliness is more dangerous than obesity and as damaging as smoking 15 cigarettes as a day.
