Abstract
We previously reported the tendency for the dines of blood group distr ibutions in England, Scotland, and Wales to become flatter as the resu lt of internal migration. The data came from a one-week birth cohort f ollowed for 16 years, A further seven years and a finer geographic ana lysis yield mixed results, The Rh - dines did become flatter, but the dines for ABO blood groups A and O showed the opposite tendency during the additional years.
