Ciekawe hipotezy, dlaczego jest tyle ofiar pochodzacych z mniejszosci etnicznych:
''Dr Riyaz Patel, associate professor of cardiology at University College London, said there were numerous reasons why black and Asian patients could be at greater risk.
These include socio-economic factors, such as BAME patients being more likely to live with many different generations in the same household and in densely populated areas, as well as biological factors.
"One thing very visible to us in London intensive care units now is how diabetes, high blood pressure and possibly being a little overweight, seem to be such potent risk factors for having a severe lung illness, perhaps even more so than having an existing lung disease which you would think would be a greater risk," Dr Patel said.
"All of these risk factors are more common in Black and Asian patients, so there could be a link here which needs further exploration."
Nie wiem czy to ma duzy wplyw na te statystyki ale w UK jest wielu imigrantow na nielegalu, ci ludzie boja sie poprosic o pomoc bo zostana obciazeni kosztami leczenia albo deportowani. Wiec albo umieraja w domu albo sa zawozeni do szpital kiedy juz jest za pozno. Rzad sie chyba z tej praktyki wczoraj wycofal, i teraz NHS bedzie leczyc wszystkich bezplatnie.
