Men’s Health Week turns spotlight on COVID-19

Men’s Health Week 2020 has begun today (June 15th) with a focus on the impacts of COVID-19 coronavirus.

Organised annually by the Men’s Health Forum, Men’s Health Week aims to raise awareness of medical conditions that disproportionately affect men and encourage healthier lifestyles.

A range of materials relating to coronavirus protection and preventative health have been made available free from the Men’s Health Forum website, and are available to download and use for employers, institutions and public services.

The site is also packed with essential updates on the most up-to-date science of COVID-19 for men, including advice on what to do if you, or someone in your life, falls ill with the disease.
