New research from from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging offers insight on vaccine hesitancy among older adults, who are known to be at increased risk of severe symptoms from COVID-19.
The EMBOLDEN program will bring together older adults who live in neighbourhoods that are experiencing health inequities for weekly interactive group sessions which will include physical activity, healthy eating, support with system navigation and an opportunity to socialize.
A McMaster University study has found that adults over age 50 who experience mild or moderate COVID-19 are at increased risk of worsening mobility and physical function, even in the absence of hospitalization for the virus.
