In light of COVID-19 and the weak immune systems of men, what can be done to improve the life expectancy of men as well as boost their immunity?

First of all we need a lifestyle change: specifically the greatest problems are smoking and obesity. Decreasing these lifestyle problems will greatly increase the life expectancy. We also need to go to th doctor more frecquently.

As a rule, men do not have weak immune systems.

Men need to be told to actually go see a doctor. I've seen too many cases of men shrugging off something bad going on with their body because they don't want to be seen as weak. And maybe stop the shaming like "man flu", I've seen much more guys come into work than gals because they didn't want to be seen as giving up just because they have mild symptoms of disease (and I'm talking here in context of a country where sick days are unlimited).

Clearly fund womenxs health because healthy women mean healthy men /s.

Not marrying.

"X-linked disorders"

Super rare and don't impair life expectacy

"higher infant mortality rate among boys"

In countries with declining infant mortality also is declining the male disadvantage

"lower life expectancy"

Biologically there is zero reason for women to outlive men, is socially constructed

"mental disorders"

Nothing to due with gender

"weaker immune systems"

strong inmune systems cause autoinmune disorders

"higher susceptibility to cardiac diseases"

It will be replaced by dementia which doesn't affect men more

Is there any evidence that COVID19 effects men more? I feel like you are putting the cart before the horse here.
