Social isolation and loneliness are associated with a 29% increased risk for myocardial infarction and/or cardiovascular death and a 32% increased risk for stroke and stroke death, according to the American Heart Association.

In addition, researchers found that socially isolated adults with three or fewer social contacts per month may have a 40% increased risk for recurrent stroke or myocardial infarction, as well as a lower 5-year heart failure survival rate compared with those who have more social contacts. It was the top story in cardiology last week.
