Is COVID-19 more deadly for men? New research suggests yes – 7NEWS.com.au
“It is true that men seem to be suffering more seriously.”
One of the mysteries of the novel coronavirus is that it is deadlier for men than women.
As of April 7, 2,232 men had died of COVID-19 in New York City, back when it was the epicenter of infections in the US, compared to 1,309 women, according to the citys health department.
Back then, there were more than 40,000 male patients hospitalised, compared to about 34,000 female patients.
The COVID-19 death rate per 100,000 people in New York City stood at 55 for men and less than 30 for women.
