Is this a Chinese neighborhood I wonder? Why arent we hearing anything about who these people were?

It’s a real disaster for statistical research. I believe patients have to affirmatively sign a long document before their (anonymous) data can be released. I took one glimpse at the long list of bullet points and avoided signing the document when a loved one was in the hospital years ago. At the time, I was in no mood to deal with this stuff. I expect most people who might have authorized the release of this non-specific info on behalf of friends and relatives in ICU’s feel the same way.
Queens is saturated with Chinese immigrants. Almost 250,000 Chinese immigrants live in Queens. Yes, the bulk of the patients are Chinese. It aint Archie Bunkers neighborhood anymore.
You can look at block by block census data on the city-data.com website.
