Though COVID-19 affects everyone regardless of their age, older people are more susceptible to catching the virus. Older adults, 60 years and above, with pre-existing medical conditions, such as diabetes, cancer, heart disease, or lung disease, are more likely to get severely infected by COVID-19 than other age groups. Therefore, it is of utmost importance that we take special care of them and make them feel comfortable and stress-free amidst the ongoing global pandemic.
It’s no secret people can fall into lifestyle habits that are hard to break.

Regular physical activity provides older individuals with a more robust immune system, improved mental well-being, healthy cognitive function, and fine-tuned motor skills.
