Here we don't talk diseases but genetic anomalities, which bring advantages to the bearer and double advantages if both parents carry these gene 'defects'.´Just discovered that the Swedes top the lists with 13%+ being de facto immune against AIDS.

There is apparently a human gene mutation,
"Mutation CCR-5-delta-32",
which makes its holders nearly immune to AIDS,
since this gene has no receptor for AIDS-similar viruses.
