Two articles on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic

Professor Jane Falkingham (SSD and CPC), Professor Maria Evandrou (Gerontology and CPC), Professor Athina Vlachantoni (Gerontology and CPC) and Dr Min Qin (Gerontology and CPC) analysed the newly released Understanding Society data on COVID-19, and have published two papers on:
 
“Older and ‘staying at home’ during lockdown: informal care receipt during the COVID-19 pandemic amongst people aged 70 and over in the UK”
 
“Sleepless in Lockdown: unpacking differences in sleep loss during the coronavirus pandemic in the UK”
 
Policy Briefings from both academic papers are available on the CPC website.
