While the study is intriguing, as you point out it is far too small to be statistically significant.  Other research has pointed out that smokers express ACE2 at higher rates, males express ACE2 at higher rates, and so on.  Indeed, some studies refute that there are racial differences at all in ACE2 expression.  

Dr. James Lyons-Weiler has undertaken to understand the origin of this virus, and something I find extremely disturbing is his observation that sequences submitted to NCBI have apparently been 'un-annotated', or are no longer accessible to researchers, in that database.  This means NCBI is incapable of supporting scientists seeking to develop ways to enable medical treatment of the virus, and implies the data is being censored to prevent understanding the source of the virus.

Facing epidemic and possibly many more deaths from this disease, that's potentially a horrible crime, if it's being done to prevent accountability for those that are responsible.  Even if it's not intentional, it's a horrible lapse in our ability to treat the ill.

He also points out that coronavirii are notoriously unable to be vaccinated against.  Previous animal trials have shown to render vaccinated individuals *more* susceptible to harm from subsequent infection.  One of the possibilities he discusses is that China has undertaken human trials of CoV vaccines, and that is why this epidemic is so harmful in China, but has not shown to be equally harmful elsewhere.

The little we know about 2019 nCoV only reveals how much we don't know.  That situation is made worse by the provable disinformation the enemedia and international health authorities (I'm looking at you, WHO) are disseminating in the false hope of suppressing fear.

The vaccine problem with CoV's is very discouraging, and in the event anyone claims to have a successful vaccine, it will be critically important to carefully examine the data from trials.  Given the misinformation we are being fed, that will be very difficult to do.

Thanks!

Thanks for your feedback, @valued-customer! It seems like the timing and location where the study came from—and the odd choice in subjects along with the conclusions they suggest looks like an attempt to misuse science for perception management. Combine that with the comments, and that they link to the same page, it gets even stranger. The only reason I can figure they’d want to seed the idea that this will only affect Asian males is that the opposite is true. Or perhaps, it’s preventing a panic for just long enough to gain some kind of immediate economic advantage. E.g., so they can order enough supplies before everyone else realizes that they should’ve been doing the same. I don’t know what to make of it all, with any certainty, but I’m without a doubt losing sleep because of it.

You know what's weird?  I sleep like a baby since I had a heart attack less than  a month ago.  You'd think I'd be up and worried about my health, but I'm not.  It's like I was set free of worry entirely.  Even about this epidemic.  I am concerned for humanity, grieve at the suffering, rage at the injustice, but I'm not worried at all.

I am fully accepting of my mortality, and absolutely at peace.  Wish I could share that peace with you, but if you'd have to pay the price I did for it, I wouldn't wish it on you.

Thanks!

I appreciate that, @valued-customer, and think it’s great news you’ve been able to divine a sense of serenity after your recent health event. I’m unsure if I worry so much about my mortality either or if I’m just shirking away from the idea of having to witness a level of pain and destruction on par with what is happening in China right now. I wonder who will be better off, the people the virus kills, or those forced to endure the event and witness the untold suffering. Unfortunately, this is like watching a train wreck in slow motion. There’s not much one can do about it, save for physically and psychically bracing for impact.
