Scientists say that fingernails are associated with the threat of coronavirus and the reason behind it is science. To establish the correlation of corona risk with finger size, scientists analyzed data from patients in 41 countries. 2 thousand in India.

Scientists say that men who have a long ring finger have a relatively low risk of dying from the corona. Studies have claimed that men with long fingers may have only mild symptoms of coronavirus.

Studies have shown that the length of the ring finger is related to the level of testosterone in the fetus during pregnancy. For the study, scientists analyzed data from 2 million people in 41 countries. Researchers measured the fingers of these people.

During the study, scientists found that in countries where the average ring finger is small, men have a higher risk of dying from coronavirus.

Scientists also used a scale to study the fingers. This time the index finger and ring finger were measured. The length of the index finger is divided by the length of the ring finger. This is called 'number ratio'.

According to a report in the Daily Mail, the expert claims that the length of the ring finger is determined by how much testosterone the fetus receives during pregnancy. It is believed that the more testosterone men take, the longer the ring finger length.

Scientists believe that the corona virus spreads infection in the body only through ACE-2 receptors. But a large number of ACE-2 receptors protect the lungs from damage.

Studies have shown that men with low testosterone levels have a higher risk of death from corona than men with higher testosterone. Prior to this, several studies have found evidence that coronavirus deaths are higher in men than in women.

Scientists also think that men wash their hands less than women, possibly delaying medical help. But at the same time, doctors believe that testosterone levels can also lead to more deaths in men.
