Loneliness Is the New Smoking?!

Turns out, feeling lonely isn’t just a bummer—it’s as bad for your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.

Even with all our social media, Americans are more disconnected than ever, and it’s hitting everyone, especially kids. Murthy’s pushing for big changes to help us reconnect IRL.
