I would say yes - maybe white people have a higher prevalence? Like mediteranean people have a higher incidence of thalassaemia, and asian people have lower incidence of twin births. I don't think that one's race would automatically preclude you from having a disease, but maybe it predisposes you to certain diseases. Love Emma
