Genes might protect me......

Has anyone else had their DNA tested?

But Bangladesh which is high in the genes is way down in the world tables for deaths.  A three-fold chance of going on a ventilator should increase probability of deaths.   So that looks like another country that is under-testing and so under-reporting.

And then there's Africa.  On average that population has the lowest percentage of Neanderthal DNA.  Then how does one explain the findings that those of African descent are at higher risk?

I think we're seeing a lot of junk science on this from the media.  I mean how can media retain people's attention span with daily numbers and politicians calling out their opinion on all of this.  It's become like carnival barkers.  A very dangerous carnival.  Either that or aliens are trying to weed out the junk DNA from the population.

the scientific world is still learning about covid19,

The science is the only way we will defeat this 

Science has defeated all other plagues that has threatened the human population

Obviously the Max Planck Institute will be looking at their population which I would think has a high level of Neanderthal genes in their population,

Those people of African descent who do seem more affected live in the west mainly in the northern hemisphere,its a known fact that people with darker skin living in northern countries  have less vitamin D, therefore immune system is compromised even before covid.

The African continent seems to have avoided it so far doing well if you can believe the governments of those countries......

There's still lots to learn.......

Stay safe all 😷😉
