This is precisely why isolated endogamy riskier, not safer groups quickly build inbreeding depression, piling up recessives and dropping heterozygosity so one pathogen exploiting a shared weakness can steamroll the whole populariion for like for ex isolated island groups like the sentinelese or ashkenazis getting hit hard by single diseases. Chimps' high withinbtroop diversity acts like built-in armor. we lack that buffer. Inter-group diffs including adaptive allelesforb malaria resistance, lactase persistence, is what it represents.No it wouldn’t because genetic differences between groups of humans are very small compared to other species
A single community of chimps is more genetically diverse than the entire human population
People react more or less the same to diseases
