Viruses don’t usually discriminate but it has been observed that the impact of Covid-19 is markedly different for the two major genders. The health, social and economic impact of the virus itself and the pandemic is different for men and women globally.

The death rate comes as the first surprising difference! Till date least 7 lakh people have lost their lives due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The worldwide data of COVID fatalities suggests that males are more susceptible to COVID-19 as compared to women and even fatalities among the males are higher, and India is no exception.
