[QUOTE="Fairygodmother, post: 2259759, member: 68789"] Mmmm, I’m not sure [USER=219467]@bulkbiker[/USER]. It seems limited in its scope, leaving out the question of why so many BAME people in Europe have fared badly. I’ve seen articles that suggest that obesity is a risk in Covid-19 cases because the extra weight of flesh round the stomach and the chest presses on the lungs when these patients are lying down or propped up and thus gives struggling lungs more to battle against when energy is compromised. I’ve also seen an article in The Lancet that suggests the version of ACE2 in BAME genes makes them less able to defend themselves against Covid-19. [/QUOTE]
