This isn’t a putdown at all but the best thing blacks can do for themselves to minimize fatality from this and other diseases is to lose weight. The CDC says that 49.6% of non-Hispanic blacks are obese.

The blacks in Africa are contracting Covid-19 at a much lesser rate than blacks in the US. One likely reason is that less vitamin D gets through black pigment. The northern Europeans with paler skin are more adapted to the weaker sun of the northern hemisphere. The blacks in Africa get a lot more natural vitamin D than they do in the US. Also, they are not obese in Africa.
