I would say that is true. Tight community so once one gets it, it spreads like wildfire. Inbreeding is also a big issue for similar reasons.I wonder if this could be because they don't mingle as much with the general public, so don't get enough incidental exposure in small doses as the years go by that builds up the herd immunity. . ??
