Well, when there was an epizootic of avian flu in the Netherlands some
years ago, Dutch people got it.  And when SARS reached Europe and North
America, people of European origin got it.  In both cases, people of
European origin died of these viral infections.

So I guess we can conclude that:
"Somehow the European races seem to be vulnerable to deadly complications
of viral infections like SARS, Avian flu!"

Right?  Sheesh!
