I did read your blood type impacts it. O blood types are lest likely to get it. A blood type more likely.

So are black people more A type blood? If so there’s your link.

I believe there was some talk that blacks were less susceptible to the Wuhan than others. I guess this debunks that.

Many, if not of the most of the people who have died in Michigan have been black, including my son’s friend’s aunt the other day. 50-60ish , not in the best of health but unknown if she had any underlying health issues. Here’s another thing: it came out today that Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit is going to begin rationing healthcare for CV patients depending on the patient’s age and if they have any other health problems that will our compromise their health such as heart problems. So, National healthcare style rationing. 0bamacare Death Panels. In a black hospital in a black city.

I’m wondering if maybe Sickle Cell may have something to do with this? Maybe not, but it doesn’t seem to be hitting Blacks around the world any worse than other races.

Blacks are less likely than whites to be type A (A+ or A-).

Possibly, it depends on where your African DNA came from.

Also, did those with this new disease have Sickle Cell Anemia, cardiac problems, diabetes, and ???

I am A, supposedly many of Euro descent are A. American blacks are mostly a mixture of Euro and African so who knows.

I remember that but this could be a matter of how well that area is social distancing.

Racial groups share far more genetic characteristics than the fairly specific genetic attributes which are found more frequently in one race than another. The fact that all the Milwaukee victims were men is far more likely to be related to their getting the disease than any racial factor.

The fact that Milwaukee is highly segregated also makes it more likely to spread within one group than another because of natural contact patterns once the virus is introduced from an outside source.
