  1. Two things to take away from this.
    1. Women lost more jobs because they make up the majority of jobs in sectors that the GOVERNMENT deemed “non essential”.
    2. The woman said that Covid is a dream killer. She’s wrong. What the government did in response to Covid is a dream killer. Nobody has ever had their dreams squashed by getting a non-serious, short term illness.

  2. Are women impacted more than men by COVID-19 downturn? naaaaa there is still a tonne of laundry to do!

  3. This is garbage. Your “News” Network in a joke. Men have been reported all over the world to be more likely to get severly ill or die from Covid-19, and theres very little coverge of that but lets talk about the impact on women.

  4. So Covid 19 is now a feminist issue. Well this just proves everything wrong with the MSM.
