The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavi- rus 2 is a deadly threat, and although all individ-uals are susceptible, advanced age is one of the risk factors for its direst consequences in those who are infected. There are precious few times when individ- uals can come together to make clear a common cause for advocacy and health. We, the consortium of the editors of the nation’s major geriatric and ger- ontology journals, offer this perspective as a way to raise awareness about ageism in association with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, and to acknowledge the extraordinary work that healthcare providers across all disciplines, including geriatrics, are doing at the frontlines of care. We also offer these thoughts as advocates for older patients, their families, their providers, and the broader community.
