Regarding the Han Chinese and the Jews. There has been travel between the Middle East, various parts of Asia, Asia Minor (modern day Turkey), Africa and Europe since the earliest times, so the Jews who migrated from the Middle East to Western and Eastern Europe (Askauer - spelling ?? Jews) may not be the only ethnic group that can carry the BRCA genes. I learned in linguistics class that the old Turkish language is in the same language family as the old Chinese language. Humm. Interesting. I always thought that it might be possible for other ethnic groups to carry the BRCA genes.
