I read social isolation is harmful. i have a beautiful family at home. i work long hours as an uber driver. most of the time there is no conversation between the passengers and myself. is this considered social isolation?

No, you might feel lonely during quiet rides, there is lots of non verbal communication, for as long as socializing during your time off and enjoying your time with the family you are not socially isolated. Trying to reduce your work hours may help.

Hi, I have been working from home since March 30th. With warm weather I have been able to be outside, working in the yard, walking, talking with neighbors.
