from Scott Shuger's SLATE column: >A [NY TIMES] piece explains that on the strength of much recent research, scientists have concluded that social class is a more powerful predictor of health than genetics, exposure to carcinogen and habits like smoking. In one study, it was found that people who had been unemployed for one month or more under highly stressful conditions were more than three times as likely to be susceptible to a virus as others. The story also notes that the new body of evidence would explain the continuing inequality in health status between blacks and whites. < Jim Devine [EMAIL PROTECTED] & http://clawww.lmu.edu/Faculty/JDevine/jdevine.html Bombing DESTROYS human rights.
