Using COVID-19 pandemic data on mental and physical health to help Australian men

Using COVID-19 response data collected from men in the Florey Adelaide Male Ageing Study (FAMAS) & the North West Adelaide Health Study (NWAHS), the aim is to develop a detailed understanding of the acute and medium-term economic drivers of mental and physical health maintenance in well-characterised, representative cohorts of men.

We will continue to collect the stories/accounts of male veteran suicide from families or survivors, and use this to identify i) the service-related contexts, ii) post service-related contexts, iii) the family and social support elements, iv) the institutional support elements, and v) mental and physical health elements of men’s suicide or attempted suicide.
