Anyone with a functioning pair of eyes will have read that coronavirus is killing more men than women.
In Italy, the National Health Institute (ISS) has found that men represent nearly 60 percent of people who tested positive for the virus and more than 70 percent of those who have died.
CNN reported that even in South Korea, where the number of women who have tested positive for the virus outnumbers men, 54 percent of reported deaths are men.
Dr. Deborah Birx, The White House’s coronavirus response coordinator said last Friday, “From Italy, we’re seeing another concerning trend. That the morality in males seems to be twice in every age group of females.”
Obviously, this pandemic is unfolding at a pace around the world and some data is not yet available. However, from the data that has been released, for every 10 female deaths in Italy, there were 24 male deaths.
In China, for every 10 female deaths, there were 18 male deaths.
In Germany, for every 10 female deaths, there were 16 male deaths.
In Iran, for every 10 female deaths, there were 14 male deaths.
In France, for every 10 female deaths, there were 14 male deaths.
In South Korea, for every 10 female deaths, there were 12 male deaths.
Get the picture?
Sarah Hawkes, professor of global public health at University College London said, “When we look at the data what we’re seeing is that in every country with sex-disaggregated data… there is between a 10 percent and 90 percent higher rate of mortality amongst people diagnosed with Covid if they are men compared to if they are women.”
It is world news.
Scientists are looking into lifestyle choices that could be impacting these figures, such as smoking and alcohol consumption.
And yet, amongst all of this, the Greens circus has wheeled into town trying to flog tickets to the ‘Gender Wars Circus’.
Watermelon Senator Mehreen Faruqi, mother of blowhard Twitter troll Osman Faruqui and lead clown in said circus claims, “COVID-19 is a gendered crisis. Nurses, nurse aides, teachers, child carers and early-childhood educators, aged-care workers and cleaners are mostly women. They are on the frontline of this public health crisis and carry a disproportionate risk of being exposed to the virus.”
ou mean, they are at more risk of being exposed to this virus, which is more likely to kill men?
Talk about crap takes.
And what about the sheer irresponsibility — insanity — of a member of our federal parliament deliberately spreading misleading information at a time of crisis?
Remember that speech that Hillary Clinton made on 17 November 1998? You know, that one when she claimed, “Women have always been the primary victims of war. Women lose their husbands, their fathers, their sons in combat”?
These horrendous human beings want us to feel sorry for women, even when it’s men being buried.

Most of the deaths are due to lung congestion and I would wager than in countries like China and Italy there are far more male smokers than female smokers.
There are obviously some social difference between men and women that would impact the risk of death from COVID-19. More men smoke and in some nations a lot more women don’t work which would reduce their exposure. However, there are also biological differences. Women are 46XX and men are 46XY. The Y gene is quite small in comparison to the X gene. This means women have more genetic material that may help them survive in a number of different scenarios.
Most of the deaths in Italy are Chinese migrant workers, working in Chinese owned manufacturing Factories. !
