A recent study revisits the claim that women governors during COVID-19 achieved better outcomes, including fewer deaths.
The study shows that earlier findings are highly sensitive to specific assumptions, and once adjusted, gender has no significant impact on deaths.
Study author: "No single research project, including ours, should ever be seen as the final answer".
Researchers compared U.S. counties on either side of state borders where governors had different genders.
The results showed no significant difference in COVID-19 deaths between counties led by women governors and those led by men governors.
The researchers extended their analysis to Brazilian municipalities where the gender of the elected mayor was not found to be a factor.
