[h=1]"NYU scientists: Largest US study of COVID-19 finds obesity the single biggest 'chronic' factor in New York City's hospitalizations[/h]
[FONT=&quot]Doctors at NYU Langone Health center conducted the largest study so far of US hospital admissions for COVID-19, focused on New York City. They found obesity, along with age, was the biggest deciding factor in hospital admissions, which may suggest the role of hyper-inflammatory reactions that can happen in those with the disease.

..."The chronic condition with the strongest association with critical illness was obesity, with a substantially higher odds ratio than any cardiovascular or pulmonary disease," write lead author Christopher M. Petrilli of the NYU Grossman School and colleagues in a paper, "Factors associated with hospitalization and critical illness among 4,103 patients with COVID-19 disease in New York City," which was posted April 11 on the medRxiv pre-print server. (The paper has not been peer-reviewed, which should be kept in mind in considering its conclusions.)

No shit. It's not acceptable to fatsham tho. My body my choice

 

[Mobdeeper7239]

It’s fucking annoying being this right about everything it really is. Fuck. Common sense prevails in situations like these.


Exactly what I have been saying from the very beginning.

”it’s just flu” though they say.


These conditions teach a man to be resilient.

So you have been saying this flu is gonna kill the fat people? Everyone else is fine.

Post 8 was correct.....well you forgot the elderly that was almost in the grave.

Still not worth shutting the country down.

I think you need to lead the crusade of shutting down fast food joints after this is over. 650k people die every year from heart disease.......mostly unhealthy people. The few that die from this flu is only a drop in the bucket to those numbers.

President Putin says Russia may need the army to help fight coronavirus.


^^^^
The fuck????

That’s a trump thing to say

 

[Albatross]

Sounds like the talking points are out. Remember one hoax at a time. Looks like muh Russia is coming back

I think it is. Karl Anthony towns mom didn’t look too old or too unhealthy. she was 58.


This is a virus that comes through and infects and gets deep into your lungs and stays there.


Heart disease can be hereditary. This can’t be.

Not surprising as NYC is not a healthy city, lots of sitting at work, eating crap food, no/little exercise since you are always driven to be working, make money, advance your career, etc...

NYC is just a microcosm of the country itself. obese, eat crappy, lazy, no exercise, etc

Hey, that describes me 4 months of the year, save for the "Lazy" part

Lazy does not apply to many of the activities you listed

LOL Willie, in NYC they live like that 12 months, stressed to the max everyday all day.
I have many friends who lived that way for years to get their career going, and a small amount that still do it
They are all unhealthy, with multiple issues, out of shape, over weight, on medications, etc

When I say lazy I am talking about exercising exclusively, not lazy in general...

Also, let's add in more alcohol and drugs being consumed and used now. So people are becoming even more fat and out of shape.
Add in the stress of not working, people not knowing how they are going to pay their bills.

I see more people becoming addicted to drugs, more alcoholics, more depression and other mental issues stemming from this shutdown

The fallout of this shutdown is the biggest crisis going forward.. Enormous problems for millions of people

Liberals are silly creatures. We want freedom of what to do with out bodies. We are unhealthy or this is inconvenient so big daddy fix my problems for me. Freedom means responsibility

Why do you guys keep talking about liberals. I’m not offended because I’m not one. But seems like the Republican Party has been such a disaster. Trump firing all these people. Stupid ass policies and/or peeling back everything Obama set in place. Logical Republicans resigning. It’s not a capable party under this administration. So liberal this liberal that....republican party is a mess right now. They make government impossible

 

[Mobdeeper7239]

Like clean air. Environmental shit that Trump doesn’t believe in. And you want to talk about freedom about our bodies. Trump also peeled back Transsexuals from being in the military. Which is pretty fucked up if you ask me because if they let Enflmaeos in there, they should let transgenders.
