The race thing doesn’t really say much does it. Poorer people are less likely to be properly diagnosed or seek medical attention.

The race side does have something to do with it when you look at broader issues, which are not available in this data.

Such as: keloid sufferers are much more likely to have breast cancer. This is not a SES issue, but a genetic one. There are likely other issues involved, but either way, this is not complete data and needs further explanation.
