🚨🆕pre-print🚨 With data from 8 COVID-19 Longitudinal Health and Wellbeing longitudinal population studies, we found little evidence that UK furlough scheme impacted on smoking, vaping or alcohol use (short 🧵): medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

This new COVID-19 Longitudinal Health and Wellbeing preprint uses data from our 4 cohort studies to examine how the furlough scheme was associated with participants’ smoking, vaping and alcohol consumption behaviours in the early stages of the pandemic.

🔥 New pre-print 🔥 We find that furloughed workers occupied an intermediate position with respect to their mental and social wellbeing, between those who remained working during the early stages of the pandemic, and those who had left employment or remained unemployed 🧵👇
