Degree of smoking in the population also likely a factor.
But not the factor one would assume. I read a report the other day that showed only 9% of smokers were dying of it and 30% of nonsmokers were. The experts had no explanation for the difference.

Basically the same is happening in New Orleans.
My theory (based on a scholarly paper I read) different ethnicities produce higher levels of angeotenson enzyme 2(ACE2). From highest to lowest it’s like this:
Chinese
Eastern Asian
African
Southern Asian
America (north and south)
European
Older overweight males tend to produce more ACE2 and combine that with race then you have the highest levels of ACE2.
COVID uses ACE2 to invade the cell.

I drive through Ruston to work, I see more blacks out in town than whites. I've also seen them gathered at gas stations and side streets. I figured the rates would be higher for black people.

My two cents is that there is a connection between COVID and HIV.
And there is a huge underreported HIV issue in the AA community.

Racial distribution of USA-zoom into Chicago
Naw, Chicago being one of the most racially segregated cities in the country cannot have anything to do with it because the virus doesn't do hotspots or anything like that.
Zoom in for yourself.

Death is racist!

Certain demographics refuse to consider conforming to "The Man" and are going about their way of life with gusto. Many are in high anticipation of getting high on that government check that they or their associate received or ripped off.
Soon we will be seeing a detailed analysis of the Covid-19 deaths and then they will be screaming about the virus being racist and the government didn't do enough to protect them and be demanding "reparations".

Pretty simple
Get shot
Test positive for covid
Death certificate - Died due to complications of Covid

And type II diabetes which is the #1 comorbidity right now.
NOLA's black community is getting destroyed as well.

That's a fun map. Looking at places I've lived...some were a surprise and some were not.
