I'd like to clear up the fact that the MHC statistics I quoted included
Amerindians and Africans. Africans are people who live in Africa, not a
skin color. While I'm sure the statistic probably refers to tribal Africa,
that is probably why the statistic was made; to contrast two tribal cultures
with vastly different abilities in terms of fighting off disease. I'm sorry
my question resulted in bickering that has lasted for a week now. It was
not my intent.
Humble appologies,
Anne Schwarz
