Covid-2019 - 2021-09-18

Been a while since we reviewed the actual facts of the ethnic distribution of Covid's impact. Despite the constant overheated political claims that it hits disadvantaged populations hardest, here's the truth: no reported ethnic group experiences fatalities significantly out of line with their proportion of population. The most out-of-whack group is Asians, who experience fatalities 2.1% less, proportionately. African Americans, 1.4% more. In the collection of statistics across a nation of over 300 million persons, this is rounding error. See page 5 of today's report for more!
