I always suspected the ‘it only kills asians’ were in denial.
Having said that, I would think in southern china near the bat caves, you’d find a reasonable distribution of CV resistant genomes. Just because living near that risk would have selectively eliminated the very susceptible.
If you want to find a treatment, looking for those SNPs would be a great place to start...
I agree. I read in passing this morning that a US agency is trying to get access to early Wuhan cases. Maybe that is why.
