With increasing numbers of people isolated because of quarantine and social distancing, COVID-19 is not the only public health threat we should be worried about—loneliness is one as well.  While scientists are rushing to understand how the corona virus works, researchers have long understood the toll that social isolation and loneliness take on the body. People who do not feel connected to others are more likely to catch a cold,   experience   depression, develop  heart disease, have lower  cognitive function and live a shorter  life.
