    The COVID-19 pandemic has had different impacts on men and women. Data shows that men have an overall higher mortality rate from COVID-19 than women of similar ages. The pandemic has also exposed challenges for female healthcare workers, who make up approximately 70% of the global healthcare workforce. These women faced a lack of adequate protection, as higher proportions of female healthcare workers were infected in countries like Italy, Spain, and the US. There is a need to protect all healthcare workers, especially women, during the pandemic.
