If you eat right and exercise you are less likely to succumb to this disease. Where have I heard that before?

During Fauci’s press conference, he quoted and agreed with Deborah Birx, response coordinator for the White House coronavirus task force, that it’s less about how many black Americans have coronavirus and more about how they’re responding. “It’s not that [African-Americans] are getting infected more often, it’s that when they do get infected, their underlying medical conditions — diabetes, hypertension, obesity, asthma — those are the kind of things that wind them up in the ICU and ultimately give him a higher death rate,” said Fauci.

Also checking to see if they have been sent home upon their first visit and if they later return needing to be on a ventilator.

They were talking about this today during the COVID-19 Task Force Briefing that Blacks are dying at a higher rate than other races so I investigated.
Dr. Fauci spoke about this trend and said it was most likely due to underlying health issues such as hypertension, diabetes, obesity, etc.
I have posted a couple of times about Albany, GA (All-benny) in Dougherty County in South Georgia where a preponderance of the deaths were Black people. Most of the cases are traced back to two Black funerals.

Black People Are Disproportionately Getting and Dying From COVID-19
Early data indicates African Americans are bearing the brunt of the coronavirus pandemic in the U.S.
In both Louisiana and Chicago, for example, recent statistics showed that roughly 70% of COVID-19 deaths occurred among blacks, even though they are a minority in both areas.

In Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, blacks make up about 27% percent of the population but comprised almost half of all COVID-19 infections – and, as of data early Tuesday afternoon, 71% of all fatalities.

Look at inner city high density population. High % of African American.

With many people in a small apartment ... yep. Makes sense

And the preponderance of inner city folks work blue collar 'essential' jobs.

A Centers for Disease Control study of the virus found that 33 percent of those who have been hospitalized are African American — even though that racial group makes up only 13 percent of the population of the United States.

Among the top 20 counties for cases is a list of 10 counties holding some of the nation’s biggest cities, places with racially and ethnically diverse populations.

Coronavirus risk for African Americans tied to more than race
At this point, racial disparities around the virus are impossible to ignore,
with African Americans seeing higher rates of hospitalization and fatalities.

Maybe the left will end their 'big is beautiful' and celebrating all body types garbage after this?

well a higher percentage of them do live packed together in cities

Im just sitting here imagining all those apartments that the developers are throwing up all over the place. They really want to eliminate private property and home-ownership and cram as many ppl as they can into high rise buildings with shops and restaurants underneathe. Those things are likely to become huge concrete petri dishes for disease.

And, of course, there's this:
