Abstract
Description
In this interview, Participant 28 and another interviewee share their experience with isolation from family and friends during COVID-19 pandemic. The participant relies on their phone to stay connected with family members, but that the use of new technology has been difficult for older adults and created isolation. They discuss their experience with teleheath for virtual doctor's appointments, and share concerns about people not wearing masks correctly and posing a risk of transmitting COVID-19 to others. The participant feels that the state did a great job at all levels to provide information about resources.
