firstly, it is reported that a Pakistani man who refused to quarantine is Patient 0. So.....
Secondly, since italians share a similar problem with Asians.. a hemoglobin disorder called Thalessemia..they may share some other kind of genetic code.
Iranians also have that same blood disorder..and some areas had what they called Sickle Cell Thalessemia.
So there could be something genetic going on....
But that doesnt explain all the non Italians having issues that were in Italy and now spreading it in the US..
so back to the Pakistani guy.
Read a blurb somewhere that they found out a German auto plant worker was real patient zero in Italy. What are the Germans hiding ? No deaths my butt.
thank you for posting about the thalassemia. Never heard of it and very interesting
