looking at just the top eleven countries with highest incidents of infection, all are part of western developed countries, n America and Europe with the exception of china, Iran and turkey. those top western account for about70 % of worldwide infections out of 120+ countries reporting

looks like developed countries have lost some of the natural immunity provided by living in natures environment

Or western culture is so much more advanced that we don’t have real struggles so we got fat and lazy and it shows in our health.

There aren’t any “my 600 pound life” episodes based in China, India, the Middle East, and other shite holes for a reason

Developed nations are more likely to have superior testing and diagnosis infrastructure.

The more diagnoses, the higher the reported infection rate.

Or...you know the more obvious answer? The other countries are not testing or reporting their cases.

They aren’t testing.

The only countries that are routinely testing are the wealthiest.

China is lying about their numbers.

Iran is rocked.

India isn’t testing at all and have no clue.

Your post is a prime example of just how stupid as a society we’ve become.

Look at the “testing numbers”... I’d imagine that the “western/more developed countries” have more accessible and advanced healthcare options, ergo more testing across the board, ergo more “confirmed cases/deaths”

Less developed nations test less.

However, you bring up a legitimate point regarding immunity.
We as a nation eat a shite diet.
A better diet with more whole foods would boost immunity overall.

Maybe we'll see poorer areas have worse outcomes when this is all over?
I'd suspect that to be so. But, too early to say for certain.

Developed countries also have more old people and more interaction between cities

It’s travel. People don’t really travel to or from undeveloped countries en mass. Meanwhile there is tons and tons of two-way travel between Europe, North America and East Asia.

Also, it’s hard to have diabetes when you’re country doesn’t have an abundance of food.

Also, it’s hard to have old people when your country doesn’t have very good healthcare.

Probably. We see this with allergy and autoimmune disease. Why not Corona.

Many longitudinal studies, even using separated identical twins have proven this point. Did you know there is zero peanut allergy in 99% of Africa? 99% because some Westerners have moved there who were much too clean and underexposed as babies.
