It's important to consider this as you watch the news. 2.6 times as many black and native americans are dying of coronavirus than white people.
Why is this?
There are many reasons for this including education and income level and other reasons. But, the one people likely aren't aware of is all the plagues and pandemics that white people had in Europe from Ancient Rome and Athens to big cities all over europe for about the last 3000 years or so.
Athens and Rome started the big city thing in Europe and so sanitary conditions that weren't perfect caused many pandemics across europe that killed up to 1 billion people between 3000 BC and the present.
So, by the time White people came to the U.S. the diseases they carried but were immune to killed 90% of native Americans as soon as trappers began entering tribal areas. So, by the time that settlers arrived almost 90% of Native Americans were already dead which is why White people could settle the U.S. successfully.
Historians believe there were about 90 million Native Americans of which 80 million or more died even before settlers arrived. So, people could settle here because of what had already happened for 3 to 4000 years already in Europe and the Middle East.
These immunities continue today in the white people living in the U.S. but many native Americans might not have these immunities today either and the same might be true of black people too.
So, people of different races are going to be dying at different rates all over the world and the indigenous people of the world likely will be dying the fastest of anyone mostly from lack of education and sanitation but also because of not having the natural immunities to things like this.
