As we struggle to find, light at the end of the tunnel in the fight against the corona virus interesting facts are being thrown up which might perhaps reveal new opportunities.
Oestrogen or estrogen is thought to strengthen a woman immune system and is thought to be the cause of far fewer women dying from the virus when compared to men. Perhaps in the evolution of our species this was part of the need to strengthen the child bearer through the difficult time of childbirth and would help explain how women usually live, on average an extra 8 years then men.  They gain this protective shield against many common diseases by inducing the bodies immunity system to respond when a new microbe or virus attacks us. One of the treatments against cancer is to reduce testosterone in the male by undergoing a course of hormone treatment, changing the balance between oestrogen and testosterone.
If oestrogen has the potential to improve the effectiveness of the immune system why isn't it given to young boys so that they too will be better prepared when viruses come along. It has the added advantage on making men less aggressive, not only sexually but in general, and a whole new social relationship could thrive and make the world a better place.
As the worlds population is estimated to balloon towards 10 billion by 2050 then a reduction  of humans on earth, would be no bad thing, especially since human labour will soon be relegated to junk status as artificial intelligence and robots take over. The statistical replacement factor of 2.5 humans will need to fall unless we are to see more and more people born into penury and a miserable life. A painless solution might be to extend the life of the male by making them more female through a weekly dosage of oestrogen, cutting down the birth rate as the sexual drive is lessoned, making the family affordable whilst corralling the male in the home with the vacuum cleaner and not in the pub with his mates.

If we can nudge Covid off course by tampering with our hormonal make up maybe there might be many other benefits, as yet unforeseen.  See you in the nail bar.
