“It turned out that 1 out of 1500 had inherited the gene defect from both parents and were therefore extremely susceptible to viral infections and vaccines with live viruses such as the MMR vaccine.”

Those with one copy make up 2.4% - 3.4% of the Inuit population. I got that from the actual study. To put it back into your desired example, that means up to “ONE in TWENTY-NINE.”

Since the trait is recessive, only 1 in 1500 will have anything to worry about.

I can't put everything in a 300 word excerpt.

Researchers discover serious gene defect in 1 in 1500 Inuits populations

There! Shorter - but more informative.

The title told you the population—Inuit.

One in 29 mating with one in 29 provides the negative outcome.

You tell people that having a kid is not a problem when 3.4% of a population has the gene.

Read the dang write up and study before smearing my work with “A little qualification and quantification would have been nice!” Help everyone here with just a little bit of donated effort, okay?
