To even vaguely insinuate that there might be an immune difference between dark-skinned peoples and whites is forbidden by the racial police!
:’) The Matt Ridley book “Genome” has a discussion of some apparent immunities and vulnerabilities which stem (sorry) from various blood types, and those ride along on Chromosome 9. :’)

I don't even know for sure what you mean by BS?
BS = Bible Study, perhaps?
No, I mean the stinky stuff that cows leave behind. I don’t believe that humans have been around for 500,000 years period. Carbon dating has it’s faults.

TB was in Turkey 500K years ago.Researchers Discover Ancient Origins Of Tuberculosis-causing BacteriaResearchers have long considered tuberculosis, a bacterial respiratory disease that kills 3 million people each year, a relatively recent human affliction... Most tuberculosis cases are caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and its close relatives. However, some tuberculosis patients from East Africa are infected with unusual bacterial strains that form colonies that appear physically different from M. tuberculosis. Using genetic data from the different strains, Vincent and her colleagues discovered that the ancestors of these bacterial strains were also the progenitors of M. tuberculosis. These results suggest that M. tuberculosis and related strains recently emerged from a much more ancient bacterial species than previously thought, possibly as old as 3 million years, Vincent says. "Tuberculosis could thus be much older than the plague, typhoid fever, or malaria, and might have affected early hominids," and its expansion to the rest of the world may have coincided with the waves of human migration out of Africa.
