Description
Babatope Ogunjesa and co-authors study older adults' pandemic lives in a 2023 paper. Lockdowns and distancing shielded older people from the virus but cut the family and friend contact that well being rests on. Whether the harm fell evenly across racial groups was an open question.
Survey data on 1,051 adults aged fifty and up, gathered by a national research center, were reanalyzed. Quality of life reports were modeled against contact with family and friends, with race in view. Logistic modeling and margin estimates did the weighing. The results show both the protection that contact gave and the uneven ground groups started from, a guide for fairer crisis support.
