The Sustainable Health Index concluded that investing in social media contributed €7.8 billion to the economy in 2022, thanks to the health impact on absenteeism and productivity.
According to the released data, this income was higher (over 300 million) than the value calculated in 2021 (7.5 billion).
User perceptions of the evolution of social media over the past decade are positive, but this idea is not accompanied by their judgment of waiting times for consultations, tests, and emergencies, which they believe has worsened.
According to the Sustainable Health Index, 38% believe social media is better than it was 10 years ago, but waiting lists haven’t evolved in a positive way.
