We are noticing a high number of russian, asian and latino infections. Only one caucasian is intubated and we have not seen one admission that is african american. Not sure if that is everywhere or just here? I wonder if our numbers are better because of the early shelter order or because people are in better shape out here (on average no offense). I can't wait to read the literature a year from now
I would guess ethic disparities likely just due to community self-segregation. New Orleans area data definitely does not indicate an immunity among those of sub-Saharan African or European DNA.

That is a great point. Early on there was speculation about the virus having preference to certain ethnicities. I was curious if we were seeing some of that preference now. Occam's Razor would lean more towards your thought process though.
