Original Note:
A previous study "failed to identify any health disparities". The current unpublished research found 9/49 of plague burials and 8/96 non-plague burials had African cranial measurements. This is not a statistically significant difference, even without cluster effects. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/B9780128152249000051 https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/nov/21/women-with-black-african-ancestry-at-greater-risk-when-plague-hit-london
