Those endless threads from biologists explaining how self-reported race is an illusion because it& #39;s an imperfect match for ancestry and we& #39;re all one human family and therefore gaps in disease severity could never be the result of genetics: do they believe they& #39;re helping anyone?
For example: skin color is mostly genetic, with darker skin you& #39;re more at risk for vitamin D deficiency, vitamin D deficiencies are tied to some autoimmune conditions and forms of immunocompromise. If vitamin D supplementation is helpful,it won& #39;t be because they overcome racism.
Nitric oxide is being tried with some success as treatment for COVID ( https://www.pasadenastarnews.com/2020/04/08/remarkable-nitric-oxide-being-tested-as-coronavirus-drug/?utm_source=connatix&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=highlights">https://www.pasadenastarnews.com/2020/04/0... ).
There are well documented racial differences in Nitric Oxide Vasorelaxation which might make this especially helpful for black patients ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2459254/">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/artic... ).
