I am talking about diseases that predominantly affect Somalis. There is of course diabetes, do to poor diet and lack of physical activity, but what I don't understand the most is there are high numbers of Somalis with Hepatitis C. What is going on with that?

Qabiilism, Somalia's number one disease, and its out of control

Lol, i thought you meant Somalis are a disease.

No, i'm talking about many older Somali women and Men have Hep, and it's not like they are shooting up drugs and share syringes, So I don't reallyknow why. There is even a Somali prof in menisotta who is doing his research on somalis and Hep. I know many older generation folks that have died from the beerka.

High blood pressure and diabetes.....Very common.
