    For those that actually want to read the article rather than dismissing it outright:
    https://www.forbes.com/sites/alison...navirus-than-other-languages/?sh=59fad6d96eea

    TL/DR: It has to do with "aspirated consonants", i.e. part of speech. (Of which English isn't the only language in that group)

    From the actual study:
    Although no statistical differences were found between the two types of languages, we observed that in countries in which the dominant language has aspirated consonants there were more cases of individuals infected by COVID-19 in comparison to countries in which the dominant language does not have aspirated consonants. These findings can offer epidemiological implications for COVID-19 transmission in each country since this transmission may be based to some extent on whether there are or no aspirated consonants in the dominant language spoken in each country.


    So the title is clickbait-y, but the study is somewhat interesting.
