More men dying from coronavirus than women, data suggests
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to expand, data is suggesting that men may be more at risk from the novel virus than women. Check out the surprising finding from data collected from the most impacted countries.
Interpol has announced a huge takedown in 90 countries targeting crooks cashing in on the coronavirus endemic.
Items seized as part of Operation Pangea XIII included 34,000 bogus surgical masks, Interpol said Thursday.
The outbreak of the coronavirus disease has offered an opportunity for fast cash, as criminals take advantage of the high market demand for personal protection and hygiene products, officials said.

“Once again, Operation Pangea shows that criminals will stop at nothing to make a profit,” Interpol Secretary General Jürgen Stock said in a news release. ”The illicit trade in such counterfeit medical items during a public health crisis shows their total disregard for people’s wellbeing, or their lives.”
Participating INTERPOL countries inspected more than 326,000 packages (Ireland) (Interpol)
Law enforcement agencies involved in Operation Pangea found 2,000 online links advertising items related to COVID-19. Counterfeit surgical masks were the medical device most commonly sold online.
The coordinated takedown, which involved inspecting more than 326,000, took place from March 3 to March 10.
