H pylori is internal and is likely passed from mouth to mouth (so to speak), so it tightly related to a population. I wonder what the pattern would be for bacteria that are on the outside, say on our skin. Would the pattern of migration match, or be more indicative of the cultural connections and cross-overs due to modern 20th-21st century population movements. Interesting.
