Probably because the disease hasn't yet spread to areas populated by Africans and Latinos.

This is really silly. Thousands of Asians have died — in Asia. Wherever the virus is, that’s where people are infected.

I hear it likes the cold - warm tropical climates may not be favorable conditions? I’ll see if there a write up on that.

Blacks don't tend to Travel much. If they do get infected there, it will be VERY bad and a lot of deaths as they can't fend for themselves very well. Lets hope it doesn't effect them much. Shame to see in such backwards places as they just can't handle it as we can see with AIDS.

this virus is primarily dangerous to elderly Asians, especially men, in poor health

Here's a write-up for ya:

Coronavirus may not be slowed down by warmer weather, scientists warn

Hoping that we make it to warmer weather before the coronavirus possibly arrives in the United States in force?
Don’t bother, scientists say. Unlike with the seasonal flu, the change of seasons may not matter much to the coronavirus.

While it is possible that this virus, like many other respiratory viruses, will not survive as readily in warm temperatures, it will be encountering a “completely susceptible” U.S. population, said Maciej F. Boni, an associate professor of biology at Penn State University.

Hardly anyone in this country has been exposed to the new virus, so there’s been no chance to develop immunity. That means the coronavirus has plenty of opportunity to infect people and get passed along, Boni said.
