It's really strange why the percentage of Asian death is so high.
I wonder if it's Orange County specific or same overall in California?
Maybe, all Asians should get out of California before it gets too late.

As of 4/13 the total of confirmed cases:1283
9% Asians, 25% white, 18% Mexicans
The total death count:19
42% Asians(8 cases), 21% White(4 cases) 26% Mexicans (5cases)
Roughly with mortality rates, 8% for Asians, 1.3% for Whites & 2.5% for Mexicans.
These death numbers are small in absolute number.
Nonetheless it is disconcerting.

I deleted it.
There are trials going on now so we can wait for consensus later although the reported results so far
are mixed according to what I have read.

Doc, you certainly are much better than Trump. Let's wait for the trial.
We shall stay away from the Trump kind of ignorance.

It is no magic that the patients with prone position get better oxygenation because it decreases
V/Q mismatches.

"A soldier in the heat of battle can't think strategically about the outcome of the wider war. The death toll of COVID-19 is not going to be accurate until epidemiologists and statisticians have time to crunch the numbers. But the excess stresses on our healthcare system are clearly evident in countless firsthand reports from emergency rooms and ICUs in our hardest-hit regions. The challenges of formulating a real-time body count must not be offered as an excuse to abandon or dial back the mitigation measures that we know are working to keep whole populations alive and safe. We are slogging through a slow, brutal, worldwide mass-fatality event. Whatever the final tally, it will be a terrible one."

For whatever reason Asians have disproportionately high death rate.
