Covid-19: Better Data
Since the Covid-19 pandemic began earlier this year, the Forum has been urging government and others to make all their data available by gender.
Our statistics pages show that we've had some success but there's still work to do.

Letters and submissions to government
The Men’s Health Forum need your support It’s tough for men to ask for help but if you don’t ask when you need it, things generally only get worse. Especially during a major pandemic like Covid-19. So we’re asking. Men appear more likely to get Covid-19 and far, far more likely to die from it. The Men's Health Forum are working hard pushing for more action on this from government, from health professionals and from all of us. Why are men more affected and what can we do about it? We need the data. We need the research. We need the action. Currently we're the only UK charity doing this - please help us. Here’s our fund-raising page - please chip in if you can. |
