Cardinal Parolin: Elderly, young suffered from response to COVID (Holy See Mission)

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Cardinal Pietro Parolin stated that the response to COVID-19 caused social fragmentation that left older people abandoned and caused young people to suffer from loneliness and isolation. Speaking at a recent United Nations meeting on pandemics, the Holy See Secretary of State noted that this isolation hindered the personal and emotional development of the youth.

Parolin said that society must pay more attention to mental health, especially for young people, while helping individuals recognize their inherent value and purpose. He also repeated the Holy See's position that universal health coverage is a moral necessity based on the equal dignity and rights of all people.
