Because race isn’t discussed enough or linked to enough things.
Can somebody explain the charts?
Where’s the white supremest category?
BTW per my “23 & me” I have 0.9% Ashkenazi in me.
i watched fauci and his bootlickers at the door of a black man...trying to convince the black man to get the vaccine. basically, fauci told the black man that he was ignorant...aka...and uneducated black..and no more. It was disgusting to watch.
There were reports when the COVID virus was discovered in Wuhan, that the Wuhan laboratory was trying to create a virus that was deadly to Europeans but was harmless to Asians.
Trust the science. Unless it ....
Yes, East Asians are elderly but they're skinny. And they already had immunity to the original SARS strain so that may had provided protection to covid.
"Human genetic factors may contribute to the extremely high transmissibility of SARS-CoV-2 and to the relentlessly progressive disease observed in a small but significant proportion of infected individuals, but these factors are largely unknown."

From "ACE2 coding variants in different populations and their potential impact on SARS-CoV-2 binding affinity" Biochem Biophys Rep. 2020 Dec; 24: 100798
"The susceptibility of different populations to SARS-CoV-2 infection is not yet understood. Here, we combined ACE2 coding variants' analysis in different populations and computational chemistry calculations to probe the effects on SARS-CoV-2/ACE2 interaction. ACE2-K26R; which is most frequent in Ashkenazi Jewish population decreased the SARS-CoV-2/ACE2 electrostatic attraction. On the contrary, ACE2-I468V, R219C, K341R, D206G, G211R increased the electrostatic attraction; ordered by binding strength from weakest to strongest. The aforementioned variants are most frequent in East Asian, South Asian, African and African American, European, European and South Asian populations, respectively."

So the studies from 2020 says "factors are largely unknown." and susceptibility is "is not yet understood." These are the kinds of words used in grant seeking, meaning more money for more studies.
These studies are now 2 and 1/2 to 3 years out of date.
Here's an interesting assertion: "Nationwide, Black people have died at 1.4 times the rate of white people." And yet Harvard says: "With COVID spread, ‘racism — not race — is the risk factor’ "
