And guys die 4 times more likely to it compared to women based on Italian data!
Smoking might explain part of it.

Some doctor said it might be related to that missing leg in the XY chromosomes.

that mainly affects life expectancy... it is also reversed in species where sex is determined by chromosomes difference in females

apart from smoke I read some think better survival rates depend on estrogen hormones

Something not right here. Western doctors are saying masks do nothing unless you are already infected. But these Chinese doctors all are wearing masks, most of them cheapo surgical masks, not P95's. Notice all the carefully selected scenery is modern and clean. Heaps of red army style saluting going on. All these exhausted doctors are all laughing and happy. They would be suffering from exhaustion in reality, and they would be emotional wrecks after they have witnessed so much misery. Buses are modern and the passengers all have high end phones, taking photos of the benign scenery. New China TV is owned by the notorious government news agency Xinhua. The video is propaganda :bullshit:.

The first casualty of war is the truth.

of course that is also a form of propaganda, but medical staff exhaustion is over since days if not weeks as new cases have been lower and lower for a while
stop looking for evil plots

The video linked below was just shown here on a current affairs program and it was a good reminder to me of just how much I hate staying in hospitals. This video also gives a good indication of what the doctors and nursing staff are currently up against in regards to the virus.

--- End quote ---

In countries with a healthy way of life the number will be lower and vice versa.

Go to this page

https://www.who.int/nmh/countries/en/

select your country and you'll get the WHO statistics on the Civilization Diseases which maps to the pre-existing conditions almost directly.

Below an example USA vs Japan.

PS: Smoking, Obesity and Hypertension are indicated as the key factors with this pandemic.
