The World Health Organization (WHO) has raised a red flag over what it calls a “silent global epidemic” loneliness, now officially recognized as a serious public health threat responsible for approximately 871,000 deaths every year.
In a landmark report released Monday, the WHO Commission on Social Connection revealed that 1 in 6 people globally is currently suffering from loneliness, with far-reaching consequences on mental and physical health.
“Loneliness is a painful, subjective feeling,” said Dr. Vivek Murthy, U.S. Surgeon General and Co-Chair of the Commission.
“It occurs when the relationships we need don’t match the ones we have.”
According to the report, loneliness and social isolation have been strongly linked to:
Increased risk of stroke and heart disease,Type 2 diabetes,
Depression and anxiety disorders,Substance abuse,
Cognitive decline and early death,
Suicidal thoughts and behaviors.
Studies cited by WHO show that chronic loneliness can be as harmful as smoking 15 cigarettes a day and is more dangerous than obesity.
The report estimates that social disconnection now affects people of all ages, but especially the elderly, young adults, migrants, and people with disabilities.
The COVID-19 pandemic is also blamed for intensifying isolation worldwide, especially among vulnerable populations.
While loneliness has long been seen as a personal or emotional issue, WHO now urges governments to treat it as a public health priority recommending social policies, national awareness campaigns, and urban designs that promote human interaction.
