Sociol [online]. 2021, vol.83, n.spe2, pp.67-91. Epub Oct 18, 2021. ISSN 2594-0651. https://doi.org/10.22201/iis.01882503p.2021.0.60169.
Covid-19 has had devastating effects. In Mexico, the existing inequality intensified its effects on different populations. Using a demography of inequality approach, this article analyzes statistical information produced by the federal government on Covid-19 mortality; special reference is made to how the health of the male population is affected due to biopsychosocial factors proper to their gender. The article uses data from the First Survey on the Costs and Benefits of Adaptation Strategies in Health, Economy and Society (CoBESS-2020), conducted between May and July 2020, which documents some of the main consequences experienced by different affected populations in Mexico.
