\u0027Being female\u002Dled has provided countries with an advantage in the current crisis\u0027

, the top 10 worst-affected countries in the world are all led by men. But therein lies a deeper issue with the analysis: each country has unique variables that make a 1:1 comparison very hard to do, and only about 10 per cent of countries worldwide are led by women.

“Our findings show that COVID-19 outcomes are systematically and significantly better in countries led by women,” the study says. “Even accounting for institutional context and other controls, being female-led has provided countries with an advantage in the current crisis.”New Zealand loses COVID-free status after just eight days as two women test positive

According to the authors, the disparity could be due to the fact that women-led countries were quicker to adopt social distancing regulations and lockdowns, which curbed the first wave of the virus.

There seem to be a lot of men here who are afraid of vaginas.

I feel that New Zealand's Prime Minister is in a class of her own. She played a key role in encouraging and implementing gun controls after a horrific tragedy & handled COVID. Women are depended on in so many ways, it is not surprising that they are talented leaders in politics.

A-A-Angela Meeerkel mass RAPE of Europe and migrant crime wave sold as teachers, nurses and engineers with wives and families turned out to be in hind sight draft dodging, cowards and hard core felons

It’s just feminist propaganda.

It has been proven time after time that women are smarter than men. The thing that has held them back is the fact that they have a uterus

Woman will nuture. Is in the nature. And they can be just as wrong too!

Look at that demon

Lol. Outclass.

Pointless study... their judgment and support staff do not depend on their vag

Said it for a long time now, it’s time to give women the keys to the car!

Bravo. I’d rather have Jacinda Adern over that phoney Trudeau any day.

Complete and utter crap

Women have always been better caregivers for sure. Let's see if a women led country comes up with the cure or vaccine. This is where men usually shine, the risk taking and innovation

Don’t forget Trudy 😂

Societies led by women wind up living in grass huts. Patriarchies build civilizations. Women leading modern civilizations are piggybacking on what men built. When they run it into the ground, men will have to save it. BTW - is Jacinta hot

Interesting study.....

Does a self-declared “feminist” count? 🤔

Small sample size.

yah right she lives on a island with next to no citizens ... open it up and let people in and watch the cases climb and climb ...

National Post uses New Zealand as an example of a Country run by woman & out classing males leaders regarding Covid respond. The statement is beyond ridiculous since the NZ Heath Minister resigned July 2 due to terrible Covid response. Nice try N Post promoting a Female PC leader

Women are...not surprised

Time for Trudeau to step down and let LeslynLewis be our Prime Minister!

Ooops. Guess the study quietly ignored Belgium's Sophie Wilmes. But then we're cherry-picking the data and can toss out any cherries we don't like the look of.

They nagged the virus out of the countries.😜

I guess that includes Trudeau

And they wonder why Barbars Kay resigned

What? No they do not. How do you compare a tiny country with a huge and densely populated one? Ridiculous.

Really Einstein ? It’s a known fact!! Can’t believe someone paid for the study.

No surprise there

New Zealand is a tiny country isolated by the world, now big start up or manufacturing plant is based in NZ. A tiny population, which is much easy to manage than some provinces and states that have bigger population then the whole new Zealand

'a report in the Independent, the top 10 worst-affected countries in the world are all led by men. But therein lies a deeper issue with the analysis: each country has unique variables that make a 1:1 comparison very hard to do,' so why waste ink.

These guys should get a real job. Ok I see, they economists. They really don’t have a job

TFCLeafnation Load of shite Germany’s woman leader protects nazi war criminals and refuses to bring them to court. .. fact

Because in general, women care more than the narcissistic morons we usually elect. Names withheld.

NP earning their media bribe monayyy

Wrong. Look at Germany, it’s a mess. Margaret Thatcher and Jacinta Arden are an exception to the rule

How seriously care about genders. Who are the most competent ?

Hopefully you are not comparing them to Trump

I can see more clearly why BarbaraRKay threw in the towel. You are like a nerd trying to be the cool kid.

Yeah,NZ an isolated island vs....

Oh yeah I think NZ is the last place people should be talking advice from. Their leaders disarm her citizens the only thing she outclass is AOC when it comes to stupidity from a politician.

The best leader of any country right now

Unfortunately my gender suffers from an acute condition aptly called “Dick fear” by late George Carlin. The nations led by those men apparaently suffering from this manhood problem among their leaders, let’s say US, Brazil... disproportionally suffer from it.

Prince Edward Island did a great job too.

Outclass? What the hell kind of journalism is that? This. This right here is why you guys have gone beyond irrelevant to laughable.

They also tend to be in charge of the smallest, most remote ones

Gay men have the best of both worlds which is why I will never vote for a CIS candidate.

Why is Canada not doing better? 🤣

So either these countries are all ran by dictators, or 'Correlation is not causation'

And then the second wave hit

Bolivia?

Yea, and nations led by right handed people outclass the left handers. Oh those dumb left handers! The sex is irrelevant. Suggesting having a vagina makes you a better leader is insane. And obviously sexist.

You are comparing a small populated island nation to large populated Countries? You complete and utter 🤡's

What do you mean by 'outclass'? The issue that matters to me is that decisions are made on the basis of sound evidence. Unless you can demonstrate that the nations led by women were more likely to make sound decisions, your article is garbage.

demon_hemi Because they do more nagging?

So you are saying there are only two genders then...

This article only talks about co-relation and nothing about cause and effect. More garbage journalism and suspect science

The virus was created by a woman, so they lose points for that.

I want to know about what happens in important countries not countries led by women.

I’m sure glad I don’t pay for a subscription

That remains to be seen. New Zealand locked down so hard, no one has herd immunity. What will happen when they start accepting tourists/visitors?

yawn.

‘Study’ - what rubbish

100% Grade AAA Bullshit!

NZ is a tiny island, easy to govern and mostly obedient people. Generally speaking, they are leftist ideologues and very smug about that, too. I know this.

eamorris_ 'Study finds' is about as good as 'Experts say' both statements are meaningless

Authoritarian mommy states choose emotion driven immediate fear reduction over rational long-term planning. This was motivated research manufactured to confirms a bias.

Lol

So we have ............does he count as a woman ?

Good on them. But one must distinguish correlation from causality. What is it the cause here? What if the global crisis wasn’t a pandemic, what would have happened?

Lol ask Sweden who are losing their country

LeslynLewis 😊

Are you sure they're women?

No western nation acted swifter than the USA. In fact, Trump acted so fast, media resorted to calling him racist and xenophobic for banning travel. You won’t report that because you are toxic media just like the rest.

When race baiting stops working we go back to gender bashing

Yup. Let's focus on what sex leaders are instead of insisting that a leader's sex doesn't matter.

Is this why Barbara Kay quit?

(Nobody tell them about Belgium)

Trump is dragging the average down for the men.

imagine running this article and having no mention of iingwen of Taiwan. It's also a lazy frame job to ignore geography and use New Zealand as your model example. The drive-by shot at the US (yes albeit atrocious) defeats your point about comparing by demographics and population

Mainstream media is pure unadulterated garbage.

You're joking. New Zealand is an island w tiny population in the middle of nowhere. USA is the center of international commerce.

Divisive politics... Canada's failures are due to a female Minister and female top Dr. But being female has nothing to do with It.

All the embarrassing men replying to this saying that the analysis is too simple (without reading the study) are also the same people saying that systematic discrimination against black people can be explained by their crime rate lmfaooooooo

Thats nuts!! Blackface has this covered!! Close parliament then hide in cottage and funnel Canadian tax payers money to family and Blackface gang!! Hang out junior Ministers when caught!!

Why do people get so offended by this 😂 fucking chill, correlation obviously isnt causation, but is sometimes worth mentioning anyway

Is that the only factor / criterion?

Are we surprised?

Yes, St. Jacinda, former head of International Union of Socialist Youth. Closing NZ borders with virtually no COVID cases when 10% of their GDP is dependent on tourism. Let's talk again in about two years and see how well she is liked in NZ.

Except in Canada. A woman ran Ontario for 15 years & almost ran it into the ground & was part of scandal after scandal. The last three governor generals have been women & all three have had some sort of scandal & this list goes on & on. I'd say women are as equally bad.

Ha, who did the study? It’s probably right.

I’m sure it’s because of female leadership. No other factors such as topography/islands vitamin D count / health care system. Must be the ovaries. Yup makes sense to me. What a crock of garbage framing everything by sex/ race etc. You’re the problem Nat Post

I thought we were trying to move to a society that was indifferent to the ‘innate’ abilities of sex. How is this news article any different than one which might point out that nations led by men are better at X?

that is ridiculous, its not because they are women. Women are not magically better. Its such a simplification beyond logic!

The General Public has been told there are an infinite number of genders. What is the criteria when classifying for a study like this? What is NZ's PM Jacinda Ardern's Preferred Gender Pronoun? Was Ardern ever asked this question?

DID YOU JUST ASSUME THE GENDER ?!?!?!?

This is a sexist article. Just imagine if the title were for men. The author would probably have already lost its job....

The General Public has been told there are an infinite number of genders. How do we determine who is what when classifying for a poll like this? What is NZ's PM Jacinda Ardern's Preferred Gender Pronoun? Was Ardern ever asked this question?

So what if it's just someone who believes they're female? How would that work? Asking for a friend.

That sounds like a sexist study.

It's an unfair comparison because Trump sets males back tenfold.

Our 3 last General Governors all female were either incompetent or tried to live like milionnaires, Mélanie Jolie who has negociated to loose billions dollars with the GAFA, etc. there are several great example of women with power....

Right, because class is so important when it comes to saving lives. What a stupid, stupid headline

There is data that is false in different ways in different places. Without this being factored in, the data is useless.

No way to isolate gender as a factor. fakenews

Please stop this. And who funds these ridiculous studies? 🙄

. CPHO_Canada Theresa Tam did a lousy job in 🇨🇦 Canada leading covid! Said Covid is: Low risk No human-human transmission Masks ineffective Stopping planes won't help Nothing on social/physical distancing Learned from SARS ALL B.S. !!

This article is sexist. Have we every seen an article how men do better running a country. No.

Total bullshit. The southern countries have been hit less due to location & climate. It has NOTHING to do with the authoritarian fascist leader of New Zealand.🤡🤣🤣🤣

Before do studies or making comments, everyone should switch the results around to see if it is racist, sexist, etc...

What kind of a woke BS is that! Who cares about the gender of leader?!?

Choosing people because of gender or race and not merit or qualifications is just dumb.

Hmmmm. Well then how do you fit idiots like Tam and Hajdu into that theory?

Belgium literally had the most deaths per capita. Cherry picking.

Another recycled article that was proven incorrect when last published. No wonder Barbara Kay quit this decaying organization.

Gotta love the readership you've cultivated, eh NP?

what? who would even think to study something as non-scientific as that? stereotypical

Complete 💩 poop This woman is every bit the insane corrupt politician as Trudeau.

More 💩💩💩 coming from the mainstream. Tick tock.

Taking care of business...

Study shows that Astronauts make horrible Governor Generals

Makes sense because if a country is progressive enough to elect a woman, it's increasingly likely they'll listen to science and ignore conspiracies.

Another bs opinion piece attempting to divide us.

Another science-based conclusion by media! Correlation equals cause! I hung an eagle feather up to keep the black bears out of my yard. And look, no black bears! Must be working! Want to buy some eagle feathers?

Jacinda is a MAN. GFY

That's sexist.

Of course! Gender has everything to do with it!🤯

Korea? Singapore? Taiwan?

Keep dumbing the sheep down. Garbage headline.

Lol

Sexist study trying to promote one gender over another. This is also an attack on colored women but picturing a white one. Sorry just trying to sound like left :)

Not cafreeland or telfordk or PattyHajdu

Belgium?

Jacinta Ardhern is the pet globalist puppet.

🐴💩

Yes, Canada has done well.

New Zealand shut their borders and stopped all contacts with Red China. Only when they let in those two fools from Britain who had abandoned an elderly family member decades earlier did they run into trouble.

This article is absolute bullshit. You're completely ignoring population density, the climate in New Zealand. We know the virus doesn't last long in sunlight. Hardly anyone lives on New Zealand Check out the population density of New Zealand vs most other countries.

Now do Republican and Democrats.

Such a stupid study
