The Missing Pieces of the COVID‐19 Puzzle	2020-06-23		.txt	text/plain	1091	71	63	We focus here on laboratory-confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases and fatalities by sex, age, and the intersection of the two, because these data are fundamental and routinely collected. We use publicly reported data from the 10 countries with the most reported COVID-19 cases to help understand patterns associated with sex and how they link to age, while considering gendered explanations. Only 3 of the 10 countries-Italy, Spain, and Germanyreport data on confirmed COVID-19 cases and fatalities disaggregated by sex and age in a usable format. Although the United States did not report national data disaggregated by sex and age, a study of hospitalized COVID-19 patients in New York City 5 also found that men were more likely to die in each age group. Important differences between women and men become visible when data are reported by sex and age.	./cache/cord-274100-0d2u23nv.txt	./txt/cord-274100-0d2u23nv.txt
