As I write the word "immune" appears only twice in 161 comments. In "Gandhi's Truth" by Erik Erikson, he wrote fifty years ago of adapting one's immune system to India as a rite of passage. Even today, one arrives with caution and does not live like an Indian. My friends born in India but raised elsewhere share this necessary caution with me. This is more complex than the Indian immune system going "That's the best you got?" My friends have been following web seminars by medical specialists. The popular "binary" impression of developed immunity is hopelessly naive. The virus hacks an existing immune system; it depends on a functioning immune system to propagate. It does not strain credibility to suppose that the typical Indian immune system is different, and this affects virus propagation. Here's a good specialist introduction to the virus, describing the complexity of the relationship with immune responses: https://youtu.be/wh-u2GDrmDA https://youtu.be/wh-u2GDrmDA
