I heard that because of hormones like testosterone, men may be more susceptible to novel coronavirus and have more severe cases of covid-19. is that true?

Men: Although men have been more susceptible to severe disease, they are men older than 70 or especially older than 80 who have been smoking and have multiple medical problems. At 36 your risk of severe infection very low. At this time 6500 people worldwide have died (3/16/20), but these have almost all been in this older category. As comparison 200,000 people died from influenza in 2019. Similar demographics.
