Female leaders saved lives from Covid-19 by locking down earlier, study says
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
Female leaders acted “more quickly and decisively” to save lives by locking down their nations to slow the spread of coronavirus, according to a study.
Their actions in the early days of the pandemic resulted in “systematically and significantly better” outcomes for their citizens than in countries led by men, the research suggested.
