The COVID-19 pandemic has brought unprecedented challenges, impacting not only people's lives but also their mental well-being. This study examined the pandemic's effects on the mental health of individuals aged 50 and above, recognizing the significance of this age group and the multifaceted impact of the pandemic. Various variables were explored to gain a comprehensive understanding of the situation. Specifically, participants were categorized into different age groups, providing insights into how differences in mental health manifest across various age groups. Additionally, we investigated the impact of COVID-19 containment measures imposed by countries, categorizing them based on the stringency of their measures. Furthermore, we explored the landscape of vaccinations and tried to understand the mutual correlation between vaccination status and mental health outcomes, shedding light on the potential role of vaccination in alleviating psychological distress among the population aged 50 and above.
