Amid the COVID-19 and HIV and AIDS crises, elderly people have been identified as the most affected and at-risk population group. This paper uses existing studies and research from different disciplines to explore the socio-economic impact of these multiple pandemics among the elderly in Botswana. We propose an elderlyinclined Holistic Pastoral Care intervention in surviving multiple pandemics. The intervention incorporates the inclusion of older people on pandemic outbreaks emergency task forces or other inter-agency platforms and coordination mechanisms at the national level. The paper further calls for deliberate and intentional socio-economic equality and attention for the greatest benefit of the elderly people. In conclusion, the paper recommends to all stakeholders, sustainable, socio-economic, Inclusive Holistic Pastoral Care in favour and targeting the elderly for long-term survival of these Multiple Pandemics of COVID19 and HIV and AIDS.
