Indeed, although my response that you quoted was about racism in Chinese actions against Africans caught up in China rather than any group being more or less affected medically by the virus.BBC News was asking a UK doctor about the higher instance of BAME patients during the epidemic. He confirmed (anecdotally, albeit) that they are seeing a higher proportion of minorities, but pointed out they have no idea what the underlying reasons are, since it could easily be socio-economic or even diet related.
On that though, the American experience is also that BAME groups have been more affected medically than other ethnicities, it has been noted in NY, Chicago and New Orleans.
