    This is a common news these days that people take interest in celebrity news than any other information of health norms .This is the only drawback which let our society down inspite of all development.

    Maybe this is a little off topic, but I have come across some studies suggesting that the rates of lupus and other autoimmune diseases are higher amongst people of mixed race. Obviously this is not exactly PC, so these studies typically get scrutinized and brushed aside, or sometimes even suppressed.
