The relation between the virus and the population condensation.
The reason I realized this may has big effect is because of the news in the past few days. It draw some relation between the infection among minorities in the US and being infected .
The African Americans and the Latino populations tend to live in urban condensed neighbourhood wile white American tend to live in the suburbs where it is less condensed .that is plus the opportunity of having health insurance the differ among race as well.
I think it might be a trend that could be studied here but not sure how to start a study like this.
I thought this might be interesting to investigate.
Also when talking about it to one of my teachers he add up a new factor that might support this theory ,he said "In Italy, Spain and south Europe usually grand children have lots of interactions with their grand parents, that maybe a reason for the spike numbers in the southern part of Europe other than the northern part when it is usually happens in a much lesser degree".
COVID-19 is a Just pathogen.
COVID-19 has no discrimination, it is indiscriminately affecting while, black, poor, rich, and any ethnicity.
Whoever, will take the protective measures will be saves, and whoever is neglecting protective measures is being affected.
That is true .
The issue is will people living in poor conditions will suffer more of CVID-19 due to the lifestyle.
will they have the means to protect themselves ?!
maybe the virus itself is indiscriminative but certainly the conditions the live in do not gave them the needed protection.
COVID-19 does not discriminate. Those who follow proper preventive measures, remains unaffected from the disease.
Dear Yasser Shalabi COVID-19, like all pandemics & diseases do not target a particular race or nation. It favours areas of poor hygienic measures and densely populated spots, east & west.
Ahmed T. Hussein That is true but, in this specific case it should be a global effort otherwise, no one is safe unless everyone is safe. immunity by infection is proven to be a total failure in every place that suggested, it could be done.
It discriminate on the basis of vaccination and preventive measures taken by individuals and the variants they face, otherwise pandemic do not recognize race or color or religion. It recognize ability to take prevention and how strong is immune system depends on one's health.
Masood Ahmed exactly, No one is safe unless everyone is safe and at least 70%of the world population is vaccinated. the discrimination comes from the governments and the individual conditions of each separate group. one major problem is the spillover " the reactions of one population will affect other populations".

The COVID-19 outbreak affects all segments of the population and is particularly detrimental to members of those social groups in the most vulnerable situations, continues to affect populations, including people living in poverty situations, older persons, persons with disabilities, youth, and indigenous peoples. Early evidence indicates that that the health and economic impacts of the virus are being borne disproportionately by poor people. For example, homeless people, because they may be unable to safely shelter in place, are highly exposed to the danger of the virus. People without access to running water, refugees, migrants, or displaced persons also stand to suffer disproportionately both from the pandemic and its aftermath – whether due to limited movement, fewer employment opportunities, increased xenophobia etc.
