Men and COVID-19: Adding a gender lens
Abstract
In this commentary, the authors point out that there are important gender determinants to both men's and women's vulnerabilities to COVID-19, and call on the global health community to unpack and address these early in the COVID-19 pandemic response. They point to best practices and tools from two decades of engaging men in research and programming in the sexual and reproductive health field.
Keywords: COVID-19; gender; infectious diseases; masculinities; men's health.
