Ethnic minorities are reported to be more susceptible to the coronavirus.
This is intriguing because different ethnic minorities are involved. That suggests it is down to behaviour rather than genetic differences.
It could be a greater reluctance amongst ethnic minorities to follow the stay indoors regime laid down by the government.
Another factor might be health conditions such as obesity and diabetes being more prevalent amongst ethnic minorities.
It might be that ethnic minorities tend to live in urban areas more than the native majority.
It might be because ethic minorities have a strong tendency to live together in certain urban areas.
It might be because ethnic minorities are more likely leave the UK to visit areas outside of the UK which have no strong healthcare system or a government capable of enforcing rules such as lockdown.
I doubt whether it can be down to poor socio-economic circumstances because there are far more white British families in such circumstances
