How do you connect those dots?

There's a link embedded in the tweet that goes to some remarks the U.N. Secretary General (Antonio Guterres) made at some town hall thing regarding the impact of COVID on women. Basically points out how a lot of PPE is designed to fit a man of average size but most healthcare workers are women, most women worldwide are not "formally" employed and that has obviously caused a lot of economic struggles, women have borne the burden of caring for dependents even more than usual, domestic violence has skyrocketed, etc. The tweet is stupid because it kind of conveys the message that men are responsible for COVID, but the actual comments it came from aren't unreasonable.
