Why does it give location as well then? Gujarti Indians aren’t indigenous to Houston Texas.

Exactly my point. You’d think that Gujarti Indians in India would have the same risk as Gujarti Indians in Houston.

On the topic of Gujarti Indians, this strikes up an interesting conversation.

Originally, their ‘clan’ region was western India and a fair amount of Pakistan. This ethnic group is known for three significant things...they are as being industrialist, extreme-capitalist, and push their kids hard on achievements and education.

The other interesting factor is that they don’t stay in India/Pakistan...they move out into the world. Any western country that thrives on commerce and capitalism...this group moves in (Australia, the UK, Canada, the US, and New Zealand).

Another factor is that the family unit will pressure the son or daughter to move within the ethnic group. It will be extremely rare to have a non ethnic marriage. So the DNA lines...stay extremely ‘pure’.

On Houston? I know there are a lot of this particular ethnic group in New York City and New Jersey. My humble guess is that Houston has attracted a number of families over the past forty years (maybe in the oil business), and the risk factor (due to the DNA side) is higher than normal people.

Finally, just a humble observation....while absolutely no evidence to suggest it....it just seems like some idiot or lab group was messing around with something in a controlled situation, and it had serious negative relations to a particular DNA group. What is bothersome now....if this is true, then this act to develop a flu-shot would present some issues.

“Why does it give location as well then? Gujarti Indians aren’t indigenous to Houston Texas.”

And what a about a hypothetical Gujarti Indian who moved from NY City to Houston last year? Should they move back to NY City to be safe from the virus? If they do, are they putting their lives at risk due to other factors under Delblasio.

I’m just glad I’m not a Gujarti Indian in Houston...my life would be a wreck now.
