I don't know how the Nobel prize works but I imagine you have to be doing something in the interest of humankind so bigotry isn't a good thing. I can also see why this guy is losing speaking engagements. He's a loose canon.

So a little medical genetic education.
Lately, LOTS of studies are showing that rearing humans in impoverished environments, i.e. poor food sources as infants, lack of instruction and nurturing and harangued harassment/lack of opportunities as one gets older causes significant health debilities as one ages.
So, Watson, who received the Nobel Prize in 1953 with Francis Crick for discovering the structure of DNA by X-ray crystallography, made a huge leap and bound because most of the impoverished countries on the planet according to him are thought to be in Africa.
However, research has shown that to be inaccurate and foolish. While there are a number of countries in Africa whose populations are in poor health, there are several other countries, some who hide their sick from public view that equally have poor health which those who are colorstruck often ignore. North Korea and parts of China are notorious in hiding their infirmed population from world view.
From a global health perspective, as humankind, we all should attempt to improve health environments for ALL children and parents. As long as we have screwball academicians that throw poorly investigated propaganda against large groups of people in the name of science and medical genetics who have notable accolades, we will never evolve. Period.
Survival of the fittest means, we are only as strong as our weakest...
