War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. Obesity is health:

You don’t have to be old to die from COVID-19 — not if you have a preexisting condition. Obesity is among the most dangerous:

Public Health England estimated that having a BMI of 35 to 40 could increase a person’s chances of dying from covid-19 by 40%, while a BMI greater than 40 could increase the risk by 90%.

Dying of WuFlu isn’t the only health problem linked to being overweight. According to the CDC, increased risks include:

• All-causes of death (mortality)

• High blood pressure (Hypertension)

• High LDL cholesterol, low HDL cholesterol, or high levels of triglycerides (Dyslipidemia)

• Type 2 diabetes

• Coronary heart disease

• Stroke

• Gallbladder disease

• Osteoarthritis (a breakdown of cartilage and bone within a joint)

• Sleep apnea and breathing problems

• Many types of cancer

• Low quality of life

• Mental illness such as clinical depression, anxiety, and other mental disorders

• Body pain and difficulty with physical functioning

Diabetes, heart disease, and cancer are among the leading causes of death.

The CDC also says that 42.4% of the US population is obese as of 2017–2018. Cosmo has a strong financial incentive to tell people it’s good to be fat. We have an even stronger incentive not to swallow anything the mainstream media tries to feed us.
