Blacks are more susceptible because of the melanin in their skin. They don’t make Vitamin D easily if at all, and VitD is a huge immunity booster.
LOL.
Really?

Funny how they can survive and thrive in Africa in places where the average European life span was months due to tropical disease.

This was a bioweapon. See the New York Times article today on the genetic sequence.

It loves going after glycated hemoglobin (think obesity, A1C, diabetes, and the like).

Guess which population in the US suffers the most?

As Alexandria Occasional-Cortex says, Brown and Black.

I’m still waiting for the ingrown toenail preexisting condition numbers. Everything is a preexisting condition. Everyone, if you look hard enough, has something outside the accepted levels. Bet a lot has to do with NO itself and Mardi Gras.

Many years ago, we were supposed to vacation in NO. Walked around a few hours to see the sights. Sights, yeah, they had sights but not what we cared to be within a mile of so went back to our friends’ house and stayed there a couple days and left early. Never again.

It won’t be long before someone decides that it is not obesity but racism that is causing the problem.

AOC already did.

Food stamps. I go to my local Wal-Mart and I can see the by product of food stamps.
