The governor of the central Mexican state of Puebla told reporters Wednesday that poor people "are immune" from the coronavirus.
During his remarks, which broadcast live on YouTube and Facebook, Gov. Luis Miguel Barbosa posed a question, asking reporters which people were infected at the moment.

"The majority are wealthy people, you know," he said, answering his own question. "If you're rich you're at risk, but if you're poor, no, well us poor, we are immune."

They probably have strong immune systems. Unlike the pampered first world residents.

Considering Louisiana is a major hotspot, I don't think I believe this Gov. Barbosa

Can't die from coronavirus if you starve to death first.

He's probably right St Helena Parish has none

Is it possible this was a tongue and cheek criticism of the ability of wealthy people to get tested and poor people not? Therefore making up most of the positive tests?
Because that really seems like what this was. Not what the OP is suggesting.

Uhhh...he doesn't realize the reason we see in this situation is because someone was so poor they had to eat a bat. Pretty sure they wouldn't have gotten it if they were eating Prime Rib.
