That implies that white people are never poor.
Obviously this isn't true.
Further, I know people, including myself, that went to the hospital when they had no insurance. I know many people who do.
I would be more inclined to believe that it is more because they have unhealthy life styles.
If there is a DNA component, I don't know what it would be. However, it is clearly obvious that DNA does have an effect on health. Lower rates of cancer in Japan for example. Another example would be Singapore, which has 4 large ethnic populations, and each have different levels of cancer.
But there is no evidence involving Corona and DNA. That's obvious since it's new, so that would be speculation.
There is likely another reason though. I was in a quick mart, and a black lady was screaming at the cashier because she refused to sell her a pack of cigarettes. The sign said "Must have valid license to buys alcohol or cigarettes". She had an expired license.
But she accused everyone of being racists for refusing to sell to her.
I would suggest that there is a counter cultural aspect. Namely, they simply refuse to follow the rules. It's part of their culture now to question authority, and rebel. They rebel simply because they can, and they do so simply because they want to rebel.
Reminds me of the old 1950s movie, "Hey Johnney, what are you rebelling against?" Johnney responds.... "....what do you got?".
That's the current counter culture in a nut shell. They don't have anything to be upset about, but they are screaming and yelling, and fighting police, and being terrible people, because "...what do you got?".
I wager that these people are simply refusing to follow the rules that will help them. They are still gathering, still hanging out, still doing whatever they want... and are paying the price.
Could I be wrong? Sure. But we just had a bunch of black kids steal a car just two weeks ago, and lead police on a high speed chase. I'm guessing... just a guess... but I don't think they were following social distancing rules either. That's likely how they came up with the idea to steal a car for a joy ride.
I think that's why Corona is killing more blacks than whites.
