Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology
  • Men's Health

Background:

  • The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has caused significant global mortality and morbidity.
  • Men face a doubled risk of severe COVID-19 and death compared to women.
  • Biological (sex), socio-cultural (gender), economic, and ethnic factors influence pandemic outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the wide-ranging health and social consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on men.
  • To highlight the impact on men who contracted the disease and those affected by its societal disruption.
  • To emphasize the critical need for focused public health messaging and interventions for men's health behavior.

Main Methods:

  • This is a review article, synthesizing existing research and data on the pandemic's impact on men.
  • Analysis of epidemiological data regarding male susceptibility and mortality.
  • Exploration of socio-economic and healthcare system disruptions affecting men's health.

Main Results:

  • Men exhibit a higher risk for severe COVID-19 and mortality.
  • The pandemic's effects extend beyond infection, impacting men's physical, emotional, social, and economic well-being.
  • Disruptions to healthcare services pose risks for other diseases due to missed diagnoses and treatment interruptions.

Conclusions:

  • The pandemic underscores the necessity of integrating sex and gender considerations into health and social care planning.
  • A greater focus on men's health behaviors and targeted public health support is crucial for pandemic control.
  • Addressing the multifaceted impacts on men requires a comprehensive approach to rehabilitation and healthcare delivery.
