BEIJING: New Chinese research has found that men may be more likely to develop a more severe case of Covid-19 and die from the disease than women, although it’s still unclear why.
To do so, the team looked at 43 patients with Covid-19 who the doctors had treated themselves along with 1056 Covid-19 patients whose data was publicly available. However, the researchers found that the male patients also tended to have more a severe case of the disease, and that over 70% of patients in the large Covid-19 dataset who died were men, meaning that men had almost 2.5 times the death rate of women.When the researchers analyzed the data taken from the SARS patients, they also found a significantly higher rate of death among the men.
