Video: A Rich Jew treats aged Whites like cattle: They are Malnourished and thrown out
In this video we take a look at a very wealthy Jew in Queensland, Australia who owned an old age home. He just shut the old age home down and literally threw them out on the street.


[This is from a medical journal. I have come across this stuff before. There are quite a few differences between White women and Black women when it comes to gestation and birth. NO WE ARE NOT ALL THE SAME! Interestingly White women have the longest gestation period. Jan]

Abstract

Background: Evidence exists that normal gestational length varies with ethnicity. This UK-based study compares gestational length amongst a cohort of white European, Black and Asian women.

Methods: The cohort comprised 122 415 nulliparous women with singleton live fetuses at the time of spontaneous labour, giving birth in the former North West Thames Health Region, London, UK.

Results: The median gestational age at delivery was 39 weeks in Blacks and Asians and 40 weeks in white Europeans. Black women with normal body mass index (BMI) (18.5-24.9 kg/m(2)) had increased odds of preterm delivery (odds ratio [OR] = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.15, 1.56, adjusted for deprivation and BMI) compared with white Europeans. The OR of preterm delivery was also increased in Asians compared with white Europeans (OR = 1.45, 95% CI: 1.33, 1.56, adjusted for single unsupported status and smoking). Meconium stained amniotic fluid, which is a sign of fetal maturity, was statistically significantly more frequent in preterm Black and Asian infants and term Black infants compared with white European infants.

Conclusions: This research suggests that normal gestational length is shorter in Black and Asian women compared with white European women and that fetal maturation may occur earlier.

Commentary: ethnic differences in gestational age exist, but are they ‘normal’?
