New Study: Neanderthal genes make one susceptible to Covid-19

Interesting.

A DNA strand often found in South Asia, but rare in Europe and East Asia, and completely absent in Africa, dating back to interbreeding with Neanderthals, may make certain people more susceptible to severe Covid-19.

I should be dead then.
