The study Older Adult Preparedness for Living with an Endemic Covid 19 by SMU’s Centre for Research on Successful Ageing (ROSA) revealed that nearly 1 in 3 of Singapore’s older adults surveyed in October 2021 did not feel mentally prepared for living with an endemic COVID-19. Older adults who did not trust the government’s response to the COVID-19 situation in Singapore were also more likely to feel unprepared. ROSA Director Professor Paulin Straughan pointed out that as Singapore transits from pandemic to endemic COVID-19, we must ensure that all social groups are well-prepared and supported.
