Is this because more BAME people live in London than rural Wiltshire?

It revealed that:
Death rates in London from Covid-19 were more than three times higher than in the region with the lowest rates, the South West. There have been 9,035 excess deaths in London between 20 March and 7 May, according to mortality modelling, with 7,383 of them linked to Covid. The highest age standardised diagnosis rates of Covid-19 per 100,000 population were in people of black ethnic groups (486 in women and 649 in men) and the lowest among people of white ethnic groups (220 in females and 224 in males). The age standardised deaths rates in confirmed cases per 100,000 population for people of black ethnic groups were 119 in women and 257 in men, Asian ethnic groups (78 in females and 163 in males), mixed ethnic groups (58 in females and 116 in males) and white ethnic groups (36 in females and 70 in males). An analysis of survival among Covid victims, accounting for the effect of sex, age, deprivation and region, found people of Bangladeshi ethnicity had around twice the risk of death than people of White British ethnicity. People of Chinese, Indian, Pakistani, Other Asian, Caribbean and Other Black ethnicity had between 10 and 50 per cent higher risk of death when compared to White British. London had the highest number of diagnosed cases (26,024) and the South West the lowest (7,155), according to data reported to PHE up to 13 May 2020. The age standardised death rate among confirmed cases up to May 13, per 100,000 population, was highest in London for both men (140.3) and women (66.8). Increased risk of death among the working age population was seen among people of Bangladeshi ethnicity (80 per cent higher risk than the white population), black "other" ethnicity, Pakistani ethnicity (both 50 per cent higher) and black Caribbean ethnicity (30 per cent higher). |

The England NHS stats taking dont know out of data is....
British (White) 80% Irish (White) 1% Any other White background 3% 84% White and Black Caribbean (Mixed) 0% White and Black African (Mixed) 0% White and Asian (Mixed) 0% Any other Mixed background 0% 1% Indian (Asian or Asian British) 3% Pakistani (Asian or Asian British) 2% Bangladeshi (Asian or Asian British) 1% Any other Asian background 2% Caribbean (Black or Black British) 3% African (Black or Black British) 2% Any other Black background 1% Chinese (other ethnic group) 0% Any other ethnic group 3% I am shocked by the report. The NHS data suggests 84% of deaths are white. UK population is 82% white Data up to 28th May here... https://www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/statistical-work-areas/covid-19-daily-deaths/ |

are we surprised by the latest hysteria ?
Not content with creaming themselves over the riots, they are now desperate to make a link with the CoVid pandemic. Even the virus is now racist if you swallow the narrative  |

is it not because a higher % of the BAME community work in health settings compared to white people ? IDK.
|
|
By:
I would have thought that would be the case in London where 55% are non-white and only 37% are white British.

Over half if you are talking jobs at the top end darren. Very few Muslim nurses at Dewsbury hospital though, which is odd given the large Muslim population. I think they find being doctors more acceptable.

no BAME cases withhin a square mile of Where I live ,the Bloke who runs the Corner Shop in Rude Health including financially
One black family I know all seem fine |

By:
Just guessing, but it's probably the age-adjusted factor that at least partly explains why they make these conclusions even though on the raw numbers it looks like there is no difference
If the black population has younger profile in general and there are less elderly black folks to start with then all things being equal you'd expect lower death rate from covid in black community. Perhaps therefore same death rates for blacks in % of population terms but at lower age than whites. Covid probably not the only disease where this is the case The weird one is the big difference between men and women. Pretty much unique to covid. The report for that will have to get in the queue  |
|
By:
Can't find the link but I read the disparity was mostly accounted for by the fact that the over representation was seated on population stats from the 2011 census. That population has increased significantly in the intervening years.

They can try and spin numbers and statistics all they want to suit their pathetic narrative, but they can't get past the great big African elephant in the room

London Mayor Sadiq Khan said "lives depend on" finding out why the virus disproportionately impacts black and minority ethnic people, and what actions the government was taking to stop it.

By:
Strange how Most of the Cabinet caught it , And Khan Didnt,Did any BAME MPs catch it ?

Little Khan needs to explain the Africa inconvenience

no mention of vitamin D deficiency as it doesnt fit their agenda they are also terrified of mentioning it
|

By:
Everyone I know has had it. Their figures are baloney. Worldwide six million infected (they mean tested) and 350 OLED people died (presumption all from covid)
No flu this yr? I had flu three yrs running. It's a gap yr. On their own figures covid kills one in eighteen. Six percent. That is bs. The daily mirror is right. I hate to agreen with any tabloid. Half this country has it. Its gettin the other half soon. A vaccine is a waste of energy. You put a condom on before sex. Not during it. |
|
By:
It might have do do with a number the BAME people who died maybe being overweight,
maybe having diabetes, maybe their bodies are not producing enough Vitamin D and them not going outside and getting enough sun, maybe they don't smoke, maybe they have high blood pressure or asthma, maybe lving in extended family groups, maybe living in densely populated cities, maybe working in manual or lower paid jobs with close physical contact or maybe just maybe in combination with a number of these factors. What are the statistics on age, weight, occupation, underlying health conditions? |
|
By:
Now having read the report it is death up to April 10th.
London was hit first and hardest so I am not surprised by the answers. However even ONS admit it is 84% white people who have died. They seem very focused on number of black people who died. The number in the data is 5.7% of deaths (around 1000 people). The UK population is 3% but the London population on the 2011 census was 13%. |

By:
If it's 3% in next years census I'll eat the biggest hat you can find.

By:
It is a steaming pile of bull, and they are polishing it so much they just expect that if they repeat it enough, people will believe it.
Whenever some loony brings it up, just say one word to them, and watch them crumble that word is Africa. |

Seen the news article suggestion people of Bangladesh decent have the highest death rate from sars-cov-2 in UK , was no raw data or real info but having been looking at blood groups from the get go of this outbreak i had another look on wiki (blood group by country) and was surprised at how high blood group Ab is in people of Bangledash origin, of course its never that simple and extrapolation, causation and correlation can be easily confused and misconstrued.
Surprised the article did not mention it, perhaps there is a lack of medical knowledge, don't understand the reason the link between blood groups and death rate has not already been made, perhaps it is far more complicated than simply blood group. I Would like to see this subject expanded way behond simple pigeon hole by blood group and see the reasons why covid affects peoples so we can understand the risks better. Generally there is a lack of understanding of this disease, why it is worse and much more infectious in winter, is there some sort of overap with cold/flu? Does it piggy back on flu and spread more easily. What is the link between blood group angiotensin2, the immune system and covid.... ect ect ect. |

some of the luvvy duvvy libtards are questioning the lockdown % fines for black people. are not the same rate as the actual population.Well lets ask them this one what is the ethnicity of the prison population and then ask them why isnt it a true reflection of the actual population • Foreign nationals made up 11% of the prison population;
• People of minority ethnicities made up 27% of the prison population compared with 13% of the general population. |

Think One of us has posted on the wrong thread/forum
It's most likely me. All these black peeps out on the streets is another thing, and simply from a outsider looking in, it ain't the smartest time to be out close for this group imo, think they are pissed off for a lot of reasons and the largely unreported riots in France early in lock down gives a clue imo as to why this group might be a bit more affected financially and hence feeling hard done by but was more interested in the science behind sars-cov-2. On another note I think we need to get the old folks out into the sun, get them exercising more and get some vitamins into them. Whilst I am here and on the subject the excess death figure in winter 2017/2018 was 50k, don't rem as much as a peep about it... Whys that then? And wtf really caused it? |

By:
Are the same stats for BAME represented in places like South Asia, Far East, the Caribbean or Africa? I think there are many reasons - some more reflective and obvious - in the UK eg living in smaller spaces/living and socialising in clusters/same place of worship/riskier occupations/etc. But, these cannot be solely down to a lack of opportunities, access to health care or discrimination. I think there could be the element of personality too.
