(A) Table depicting changes in daily living and in the financial situation due to the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown measures. N responded = the number of callers who were willing to answer the question. N represents the number of callers who affirmed the specific information and features asked. (B) While the social interaction with one’s partner remained stable, callers reported fewer social interactions with all other relatives (including children, grandchildren, parents, and siblings) during the crisis. (C) The number of social interactions also decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic; while most participants had >10 social interactions in person per week before COVID-19, most callers reported a decrease in all personal social interactions to 2–5/week during the lockdown measures.
