This is the VOA Special English Health Report.

Loneliness has been linked to depression and other health problems. Now, a study says it can also spread. A friend of a lonely person was fifty-two percent more likely to develop feelings of loneliness. And a friend of that friend was twenty-five percent more likely to do the same.

Earlier findings showed that happiness, obesity and the ability to stop smoking can also spread like infections within social groups.

The findings all come from a major health study in the American town of Framingham, Massachusetts.

The study began in nineteen forty-eight to investigate the causes of heart disease.

Since then, more tests have been added, including measures of loneliness and depression.

The new findings involved more than five thousand people in the second generation of the Framingham Heart Study. The researchers examined friendship histories and reports of loneliness. The results established a pattern that spread as people reported fewer close friends.

For example, loneliness can affect relationships between next-door neighbors. The loneliness spreads as neighbors who were close friends now spend less time together. The study also found that loneliness spreads more easily among women than men.

Researchers from the University of Chicago, Harvard and the University of California, San Diego, did the study. The findings appeared in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.

The average person is said to experience feelings of loneliness about forty-eight days a year.

The study found that having a lonely friend can add about seventeen days. But every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about five percent, or two and a half days.

Lonely people become less and less trusting of others. This makes it more and more difficult for them to make friends — and more likely that society will reject them.

John Cacioppo at the University of Chicago led the study. He says it is important to recognize and deal with loneliness. He says people who have been pushed to the edges of society should receive help to repair their Social Networks.

The aim should be to aggressively create what he calls a “protective barrier” against loneliness.

This barrier, he says, can keep the whole network from coming apart.

Fascinating look into the mind of skateboard expert Tony Hawk. Kevin Rose sat down with the skateboarding legend and asked him the top questions submitted and voted on by users of Digg.com.

Questions Include:

The Impossible 900 Trick
When you pulled off the 900 around a decade ago, it was mindblowing. But three other skateboarders have done it since. What do you think the next seemingly impossible trick will be, and who do you think will pull it off?

“Do You Play As Yourself…?”
Do you play as yourself when you play Tony Hawk branded games?

Skating in the White House
You caused controversy with many people this year when you skateboarded in the Whitehouse. If you could skate anywhere else in the world, where it would be considered “forbidden” or “inappropriate”, where would it be?

Tony Hawk Ride Too Expensive?
Do you think the price tag on the upcoming Tony Hawk Ride game is a little much? For $120, you can buy a decent board and actually learn to skate for real.

Did You Apologize?
After defying physics, did you apologize?

Tony Hawk, Digg, Twitter and the Web
I’ve seen you link to digg stories on your twitter account. Are you a hardcore Digg user? What other websites are you into?

Skateboarding an Olympic Sport?
Do you think that skateboarding will ever be an Olympic sport?

Have You Played EA’s “Skate”?
Have you played EA’s “Skate”? If so, what did you think of it?

If You Never Skated, Where Would You Be Today?
Tony, had you never picked up a skateboard as a child, where would you see yourself today?

Did You Make More Money From…?
Did you make more money from professional skateboarding or from the video game?
