“If the increasing wage gap between high and low earners directly or indirectly affects men’s aggregate labor supply, wage inequality might have carried wider implications to the economy than previously believed,” Wu wrote.

one of the things was talking about men from 35-44 so they are probably not dead/dying from covid
If it's long covid, just give it a few more years.
There has been about 60,000 deaths from covid in the age range of 30-49. I couldn't find the rate of long covid for that age range, but the cdc estimates about 20 million adults suffer from it.
Absolutely but this article was talking about an increased trend found in non college educated men, and not found in college educated men and women of any education. And everyone is gettin Covid
There may be something to it, but also... the pandemic destroyed a lot of low wage jobs. And I remember the inital covid wave hit low wage workers particularly hard, health wise, because those are jobs typically public facing and you can't do them from home.
That's a good point
