For older adults with hypertension who represent a high-risk group (Espinosa et al., 2020; Yang et al., 2020) , the description of movement behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic may play accelerometer wear time. We highlight that the decreases in PA and the increases in SB levels occurred in a sample of hypertensive older adults who already had low PA (~5,800 steps/day, ~5 hour/day of light PA, and ~15 min/day of moderate-vigorous PA) and high SB (~11 hour/day) levels before the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic may elicit unhealthy changes in movement behavior in hypertensive older adults, characterized by an increase in time spent in SB and a decrease in time spent in PA, especially on weekend.	./cache/cord-276391-g43ktrj9.txt	./txt/cord-276391-g43ktrj9.txt
