The pandemic has fundamentally reorganized our relationships with family, friends and colleagues. Socializing during lockdown has been discussed at length since the crisis began over one year ago.
In light of these findings, another question arises. Why can t humans do without others? The answer is simple: social connection is a fundamental need.
My colleagues and I at Universite Laval conducted a review of research on social connections and here is what we learned.
Human beings are fundamentally social
From birth to death, human beings need others to live, survive, develop and die. Our mother gives birth to us and our spouse or relatives accompany us to death.

MONTREAL Health experts in Quebec are criticizing the provincial government for what they say is a confusing vaccine rollout for people with chronic conditions.
Holly Witteman, a professor at Universite Laval’s faculty of medicine, said Wednesday the appointment-booking process for people at high risk of serious complications from COVID-19 is “completely opaque.” Adding to the confusion, she said, is mixed messaging from the province.
“It just demonstrates a lack of caring and a lack of respect for people who have been living at risk for over a year now,” she said in an interview.
On Tuesday, Health Minister Christian Dube said people with certain serious medical conditions would be able to make vaccine appointments online. Later that day, the province’s Health Department issued a news release saying those people who are not hospitalized would be contacted by their medical providers to be vaccinated.
