that Asian are more susceptible to coronavirus that target ACE2 receptors. Some cases of Caucasian infection is not a disprove as the finding is not that Caucasians are immune to it, but they're less susceptible to infection.

Results

A total of 13 studies with 1966 cases and 6129 controls were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled ORs for the association between ACE I/D polymorphism and PVD risk were not statistically significant in the overall population under all genetic models. In further ethnicity-stratified analyses, we found a statistically significant association of ACE I/D polymorphism with PVD susceptibility in Asians under most models. However, the association among Caucasians did not reach statistical significance.

Conclusion

ACE I/D polymorphism might be associated with susceptibility to PVD in the Asian population, but there was no clear evidence indicating a similar significant relationship among Caucasians.

In another case where a Chinese was diagnosed with the virus, his Russian wife and daughter are not infected. This guy had never been to Wuhan or come across someone from Wuhan. According to his recount, the closest possibility was his family took a lift in a BJ museum that carried two passengers from Wuhan an hour earlier. He and his daughter developed fever after returning to Russia, but only he was diagnosed as positive.

我们近期都没有去过武汉,也没去过湖北,没有接触过武汉的朋友。至于为什么会被传染,这两天我仔细想了一下,可能就是前阵子在北京一个博物馆的电梯里。电梯管理员好心提醒我们一小时前有两个武汉人上过电梯,结果别的人都没有乘坐,只有我们一家上了这个电梯。那是我离“武汉”最近的一次,当然也不排除别的可能。

1月25号回到俄罗斯家中以后,晚上我和孩子就开始感冒咳嗽,当时以为是最后一天太折腾了。

直到2月1日,医生才偷偷告诉说就是我。得知确诊后,我在网上发过文章,公开了自己具体行程信息。
