I honestly don't know enough about Denisovans to make a sensible comment on them.

My statement about Neanderthal DNA is based on various thing, which you can readily research on Google. Here's one:

East Asians seem to have the most Neanderthal DNA in their genomes, followed by those of European ancestry. Africans, long thought to have no Neanderthal DNA, were recently found to have genes from the hominins comprising around 0.3 percent of their genome.

You can do a Google search on "Neanderthal DNA" to find out all kinds of things.
