Precarious ageing in a global pandemic – older adults' experiences of being at risk due to Covid-19
Health authorities worldwide address older adults as a risk group for more serious illness and health complications associated with COVID-19, while social gerontologists have warned that addressing older adults as a risk group of COVID-19 bears the risk of reinforcing ageism. This paper empirically explores to what extent older adults perceive themselves as part of a COVID-19 risk group and how these perceptions influence their everyday lives and…

Die Analysen zeigen, dass es sich bei älteren Menschen nicht um eine homogene Gruppe handelt, das Einsamkeitsniveau also bereits vor der Pandemie diverge…
