Abstract

The article discusses the long-term impacts of the Vietnam War on survivors, particularly focusing on the physical and emotional health of older individuals in Vietnam today. The Vietnam Health and Aging Study (VHAS) has revealed insights into the health effects of war, highlighting the resilience of military veterans and the lasting consequences of war experiences at a young age. The study also emphasizes the importance of diversifying research experiences and addressing gaps in healthcare benefits for survivors, especially women and youth who served in informal roles during the war.
