We’ve heard an immense amount about the “inequity” that caused blacks to get hit harder than whites by the first wave of the pandemic last spring, but almost nothing about how blacks were hit least hard by the third wave that is finally now receding. Here is the CDC’s graph of weekly deaths (all causes) in 2020 compared to the 2015-19 average.
You can see the familiar three hump pattern. It’s interesting, however, how sharply the non-Hispanic black humps decline, with the spring being very bad, the summer not so bad, and the big Third Wave late in 2020 barely showing up. Indeed, the late 2020 wave appears to have hit non-Hispanic whites harder than blacks, although that fact hasn’t gotten much publicity. For example, in Week 50 of 2020 in mid-December, white deaths were 36% above the recent multiyear average for that week, while black deaths were 27% higher than normal. (Note, not all deaths from December have yet trickled into the CDC, so the final numbers will be a little highter.)
In contrast, Hispanics got him about equally hard all three times. American Indians just seem to have it bad all the time.
I wonder what explains these patterns.
I wonder what explains these patterns.
White Privilege. Because it explains every bad thing that ever happens, or ever will happen.
1) Of course, nobody notice disadvantaged whites. Blacks and minorities are the only populations of concern.
Whites gave up all civil rights, human rights, and constitutional rights! Whites surrendered with the civil-rights-for-Blacks-only laws of 1965.
Plus when they did not protest the media gag orders about black crimes and the police orders to hush up black crime. Plus when they accepted Margareth Mead’s and Boas’ falsifications without shunning them forever.
Therefore we have unequal rights. Official Black and „minority“ privilege to fight alleged white privilege.
2) How close are Blacks to herd immunity? Could that be an explanation?
Blacks front loaded their cases via their lesser ability/desire to follow direction.
The rest looks pretty much per spec. Hispanics continue to run hotter than whites. More crowded and more multi-generational households.
Or they front loaded their cases because they were more likely to work in jobs where you breathe the same air as random strangers: nursing assistants, home health aides, bus drivers, barbers, cab drivers, sky caps and then spread more rapidly because blacks aspirate more in ordinary conversation.Replies: @Steve Sailer
It means that people who were really prone to dying of Covid are either mostly gone now or they recovered and are now immune. Blacks ignored the warnings and got nailed hard early, and part of their epidemic is over. They likely have a higher percentage of herd immunity than any other race at this point.
Those that are left are either 1) really good at isolating themselves from others (being unsocial is a mainly a white trait), or off where no one was interested in going (American Indian Reservations-that’s why they got hit later), or are Hispanic illegals who are traveling back and forth over the border or moving around the US a lot looking for jobs. When many people lost their jobs during the Covid crisis, this resulted in a lot of Hispanic unemployment and caused them to uproot and go looking for work. The more you travel, the more likely you’re going to get infected.
A lot of the jobs male Hispanics do is seasonal, (construction, yard care, crop harvesting) and they move around looking for jobs even more than whites do. This keeps their Covid exposure and infection rates churning at a high rate.
Because of their mobility, they are the main culprits in keeping this epidemic going in both the US and Mexico, and both countries would have seen a leveling-off akin to the black rate if Hispanics would quit moving around so much.
If you look at Mexico’s infection rate, Covid had a big boost in November and a bigger boost in January. It shot up when Hispanics who had seen their yard, farm, and construction jobs end for the winter, so they went back home to Mexico. They were joined by a big wave of Hispanics whose restaurant jobs had vanished. They brought a wave of Covid into Mexico with them.
A warning: When the big migration of Mexicans returns to the US in the Spring, those who have not yet been vaccinated are likely to get nailed by Covid. Our rates are going to increase again.
“Blacks ignored the warnings and got nailed hard early, and part of their epidemic is over. They likely have a higher percentage of herd immunity than any other race at this point.”
Why not Latinos?
In northern states, there is no landscaping, and limited construction is being done.Lots of Hispanics, legal and illegal get out of the cold and go home or at least to warmer places for the winter.
You get Covid from being in poorly ventilated enclosed spaces with infected people. It is 14 degrees outside tonight. Everybody has to be inside. Covid rates will be higher when people have to be inside either to escape the cold, or the hot weather.
This may not be the same in places like California and Texas.
What explains these patterns? My best guess is that for negroes, once the initial “blacks don’t get COVID” insanity had run its course, negroes started to acquire limited herd immunity. Factor in a native predisposition for superstition that increases prudent behavior if even for the wrong reasons.
For native Americans and hispanics, many of whom are mestizos, and one wonders if a genetic component makes non-Europeans more susceptible.

I saw a video of British doctor/ex-Pfizer something-or-other Mike Yeadon saying the concept of “waves” is nonsense, and that any subsequent wave is simply the virus spreading among some population it hadn’t already reached, with seasonality and lockdowns delaying spread, too.
Obviously I can’t vouch for that, being a humble fake ex-president – I probably haven’t even explained it right – but if it were so, it might account for the data: if the black population copped it worse at first, and if infection confers immunity, then there should simply be less blacks capable of being infected in each, er, “wave”.
This effect would be more pronounced among ethnicities smaller in number and more concentrated geographically, and less pronounced among the more populous and widely-dispersed ethnicities.
I don’t know enough of America to say whether that theory holds up against the data above.
The Third Wave originated in the Northern Great Plains, an exceptionally white part of the country.
Also: It spread more quickly among black people back in the spring. It’s finally caught up to white people outside of urban areas, and they tend to be older.

My vague hunch is that black airport workers were exposed back in the Tom Hanks Disease days of March.
Keep in mind steve, these are deaths above average, and the averages are not the same for all groups. Blacks generally die at twice the rates of whites, and asians half the rates of whites, while hispanics are midway between whites and asians (some ascribe the lower death rates among asians and hispanics to the healthy immigrant phenomenon, both that physically weak and sick people are less likely to immigrate, and that immigrants who are unsuccessful are both more likely to die young and return to their countries, leaving those who remain as healthier on average).
So if you have covid killing an equal number of white/hispanic/asian/black people controlled for age, you’d expect the deaths above average to be lowest for blacks and highest for asians, than hispanics than whites. It could be the initial deaths for blacks was much higher.
This is incorrect (think for a moment about the implications for life expectancies if it were true).
Hispanics aren't doing better than whites. There should not even be any talk of Hispanics since their average age is like 13 in the USA. Old Hispanics are an extremely low percentage of the population.
Whites are the oldest demographic group in America and therefore have way more at-risk seniors. White people are killing you blacks, Hispanics, Asians and Natives in Covid survivability.
Looks like the black percentage increase in the third wave is about the same percentage increase as the white. (Not numbers of deaths.) the black deaths in the spring were much worse, percentage-wise.
My guess is vitamin D. COVID was prominent in the month after the end of winter and low Vitamin D, which is much worse for blacks than whites due to skin tone. It killed so many vulnerable people in the first wave that it burned through the easy killings.
You could test this by seeing if Black Death rates from COVID vary by latitude. Do blacks in LA die at a higher rate than those in Detroit, or lower?
Encouraging news?
Looks like whites are weaker is correct. All you white guys on here do is bitch and complain and do nothing to change things. You are under a curse now. The end of the white male is upon you. Why do you think so much is anti white now? Black men are worshipped by white women, culture is black now, music, sports, all dominated by black men. Your sperm counts are falling, look it up… White males in Europe are attacked, beaten, humiliated in sweden by forced taking off clothes,licking black mens feet, letting themselves be robbed and not fighting back so they dnt get beat up. White males are now the most unwanted demographic in any business now. All major companies have pledged to majorly increase ppl of color in the ranks and good jobs. Those who enslave shall go into slavery saith the bible. It dsnt lie. The bible says gods ppl shall number as the stars. That sure isnt white ppl w declining sperm counts and falling population and being swamped by immigrants in white nations. You shall be made small among the heathens saith the bible. Those who enslave shall go into captivity. This isnt a fantasy of long ago. God’s word never ceases. The sons shall hate theyre fathers for the lies they were told. Its all coming to pass but all you do is complain that all this anti white male hatred you know is upon you and you speak of it and wonder why. But you wont listen to truth. Esau, the so called white man, is the end of this world and Jacob is the beginning of the next. Saith the bible. Has the world ended yet? No… So you are the end of tgis world and Jacob who was born dark skinned is the beginning of the next world to follow. So many white males today are suicidal and drugged up, homeless, jobless, begging. Think youll rise again? 400 years is what the bible says and your time is up. I will carry my children by ships where they will be enslaved for 400 years, 1619-2019…and then i will carry you out of captivity and make you rulers. Read scriptures. All your answers are there

good point…the first wave in the US hit areas where a lot of Blacks live, such as New York and New Jersey….California got their first big wave this winter and very few Blacks live in California.
the first wave in the US hit areas where a lot of Blacks live, such as New York and New Jersey
Yes, but in New. York and New Jersey it was the ultra-Orthodox and Hassidic Jews that were super-spreaders. Also, New York’s governor Andrew Cuomo, revered by Democrats all, ordered nursing homes to take back COVID patients after they were released from the hospital. That decision may account for over 10,000 deaths. Still, the man’s REVERED, I tell you! Those briefings he gives got him an Emmy!
Actually the more lefty Democrats don't like Cuomo.
Maybe because the Latinx population has a lot of churn, meaning the Hispanics that are here now aren’t necessarily the same as the ones that were here during the first two peaks.
Geography, at least in part. Each wave primarily hit different regions of the country. So the death rates have to be compared to population for the region, not the whole country.
That doesn’t explain all of the difference, but a good portion of it.
Most of the Latinos around here work outside doing construction and landscaping. Others worked in restaurants. Restaurants are operating at reduced capacity, carry out or not at all.
In northern states, there is no landscaping, and limited construction is being done.Lots of Hispanics, legal and illegal get out of the cold and go home or at least to warmer places for the winter.

This data actually seems to be confirming the much maligned and laughed at “Asians are more susceptible” stuff that was on this site back in March.
Blacks– perhaps they aren’t physiologically more susceptible and their elevated rates in the beginning were due solely to social habits. They have undergone steady and drastic decline: they learned social distancing. Certainly had the most discretionary socializing to be discarded, particularly high risk stuff like talking and laughing loudly and singing.
All that’s left is a bunch of Asia-derived groups who are all elevated. For Asians proper, elevated in spite of a good risk factor profile (e.g. education, wealth, obesity level). Each of these groups is elevated during the spikes, but also in the troughs. This makes their situation less likely to be the result of regionally concentrated spikes where they constitute a disproportionate proportion of population (i.e. NYC metro in April or Calif. in Dec-Jan).

“The Spanish flu killed 45,000 US soldiers back in 1918/9”
Yes, but don’t forget that many of these 45,000 soldiers had spent the last couple of years pickling their feet in muck-filled trenches, huffing high-tar army-grade tobacco and sipping all kinds of questionable hooch, and consorting with various cultural flavors of prostitutes — and dealing with the mercury salts and whatever else it was that doctors used to cure the after-effects of that. Let’s also remember that penicillin, and the wide availability of effective antibiotics, was still a decade away.
I.e. saying they’re all soldiers doesn’t make this an apples-to-apples comparison. If you subject today’s soldiers to the exact same range of immunological stressors and pharmaceuticals, I would wager you’d see a few more drop dead from COVID or anything else. Conversely, if you took away the grueling horrors and drudgery associated with WWI, from shell-shock to trenchfoot, the veterans of WWI wouldn’t have died of the Spanish flu in the same numbers.

In California, the case percentage for Hispanics is about double that of blacks, but, at least through early January, their Latinos’ infections kept going up up up.
Maybe blacks can achieve some measure of herd immunity due to being more isolated? If Asians are pretty well mixed in among whites geographically and socially, then they shouldn't act as a separate demographic for heed immunity purposes.
