Certain hereditary deseases exist which are found especially among particular groups, e.g. familial mediterranian fever which affect groups of people originating from around the mediterranian sea. Moreover, studies have shown differences in morbidity rates for immigrants from certain countries compared to ethnic Danes and immigrants from other countries. E.g. the morbidity rate for cancer is higher for ethnic Danes than it is for immigrants. |
