LOL, everything you posted has to do with race.

Add covid to the growing list of things that are racist. (The list that conveniently leaves off actual bigots saying things like "I HATE WHITE MEN" and such)

Why isn't BLM "Male Lives Matter," considering something like 96% of people shot by cops are male?

This certainly has nothing to do with peoples horrific, daily, lifestyle choices.

I would love to see a study of low BMI individuals across all races instead of lumping everybody into the same argument without any regard of the actual demographics and simply choosing race-baity titles just to get everyone riled up.

Why havent any athletes had major complications with this yet across the major sports? This study labels everyone as equals so your 400lb fat fuk snacking on cakes and honey buns while smoking cigarettes out his arse is the same as Kevin Durant. Plenty of coronavirus cases in the sports world and at a 5x hospitalization rate, you figure there would be a couple.

There is the argument that different cultures live different lifestyles which includes different diets. Its the information age though. Obesity in America isnt anything new. The internet came out decades ago and there is literally everything available at our fingertips to get people living healthier if they so choose to.

If a pandemic that targets the obese doesnt get the obesity rates to change for the better, then fuk em.

So that kind of takes Sweden out of the equation for me now. If Sweden where a more diverse country, they would likely have far a greater rates of infection.

If you were 5x times more likely to be hospitalized from the virus then you currently are, maybe your attitude would change a little bit.
no chit sherlock. black folks produce less vitamin D. ppl should be supplementing that but are instead to go out and riot.

Geek blacks die from it because they are less likely to follow social distancing, more likely to be unhealthy in general, less likely to test themselves unless very ill etc etc

You dont magically die from a virus just because you have Black skin.

Everyone knows Covid sits on doorknobs and waits for black hands to touch it. Don't get me wrong, occasionally some of the more woke virus will attach themselves to white and asian hands....but the vast majority are still ass backwards and racist AF.

Vitamin C & D are very different, and low vitamin D levels have consistently correlated with respiratory diseases, not just covid.

Seems Vitamin D levels have been one of the few constant things since this all began. Glad I've used 10,000IU a day for years.

JFL. Here's a short vid from the subway in Stockholm recorded just a couple of days ago. Lots of diversity, no masks, no social distancing, since DAY FOOKIN ONE of the coronaflu. And they're doing just fine. But you'll clearly perform any kind of conformist mental gymnastics to continue to justify the lockdowns, right boyo? Keep drinking your hand sanitizer.

That's why most blacks don't seem to give a single flying fook about the coronaflu and have been eagerly engaging in "super spreader" events since the death of Floyd, to say nothing of the street parties in ghettos taking place every night. JFL.

WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC FROM THE LIMITED RACE DATA THAT HAVE BEEN RELEASED?
As more data about the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic becomes available, it is increasingly clear that the disease is hitting the most vulnerable and disadvantaged populations in the U.S. the hardest. Although ***racial and ethnic information is currently available for only about 35% of the total deaths in the U.S****., even this limited sample shows that Black Americans and other historically disadvantaged groups are experiencing infection and death rates that are disproportionately high for their share of the total population. For example, while Black Americans represent only about 13% of the population in the states reporting racial/ethnic information, they account for about 34% of total Covid-19 deaths in those states. Asian Americans and Latinx Americans also show elevated impacts in some regions.
There is an unspoken thing, we are iron brothers and sisters, we are to support each other and...It is our duty to support our brothers and sisters in the iron game!

And low vitamin C levels have long been associated with vascular tone and immune function. I’m just saying that the physiology doesn’t always end up correlating with the evidence. People are making connections that aren’t necessarily true.

All right I paid close attention to the vid and this is the score:

2 black men
1 black woman
3 Asians + 1 Asian child
3 Middle Eastern men

That's more diversity in 30 seconds then I'll sometimes see in 30 days.

But if you want even more diversity than that, here you go (vid from June):




Either way I have no idea what OP is getting at. You check the top 15 countries in the world right now with the highest number of daily new infections, and only two of them (US and UK) have any significant number of black people.

JFL. 6000 deaths in almost a year in a country of 10 million and the 15th highest death rate per capita with no masks/no shut down from day one isn't failing.

If anything those numbers expose the coronaflu for the absolute sham that it is.

OK, if my white ass moved to the tropics somewhere or to the desert in Africa, I would get skin cancer much more easily than a black person would.

That doesn’t mean skin cancer is racist. People that keep saying that “I guess the virus is racist” as though it were an actual argument fail before they finish the sentence.

I think OP is trying to say there might be some type of genetic component that makes people of African ancestry more susceptible to the virus. I'm not sure if its related to behavior or genetics but there is something going on for sure

For OP's implied thesis it has to be proved that the reason blacks are dying at a faster rate is purely genetics and not environmental.

so, the question is.

Has this been proven?
