For this purpose, we calculated the behavior changes of people in different mobility metrics, such as percentage of people staying home during the study period (March, April, and May 2020), in different age groups in comparison to the days before the pandemic (January and February 2020), by utilizing anonymized and privacy-protected mobile device data. Several aspects of mobility patterns including percentage of people staying at home and social distancing index, have been investigated in this paper to illustrate how different age groups behave during the pandemic. ./cache/cord-234996-hah19vmk.txt ./txt/cord-234996-hah19vmk.txt
