Read ScoobyDoo's post history folks: https://omegacanada.win/u/DoggyDawg/. They're obsessed with "fatties". They have a link that says it's better not to be overweight if you get covid and that's all they want to know.
They don't care what the other comorbidities might be, or what the major ones are.
He's entitled to his opinions, but where's the science folks? What studies does he have to back up those opinions up?
Don't forget that doctors used to encourage people to smoke long after the studies started to show the harm.

Kind of like you encouraging fit people to get a covid vaccine long after studies have shown that it’s basically fat people that die of covid.
"78% of people hospitalized for Covid were overweight or obese" https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/08/covid-cdc-study-finds-roughly-78percent-of-people-hospitalized-were-overweight-or-obese.html
About 80% of the US population is overweight or obese https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/health-statistics/overweight-obesity
So the percentage of overweight/obese people in the US population and in the hospital with covid is about the same, (https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/08/covid-cdc-study-finds-roughly-78percent-of-people-hospitalized-were-overweight-or-obese.html / https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/health-statistics/overweight-obesity) so while it's better to be healthy (which is what her link says) the statement that "it’s basically fat people that die of covid" is pretty dumb.
Being overweight is on some lists of covid comorbidities, but it's not near the top. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/in-depth/coronavirus-who-is-at-risk/art-20483301 / https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/publications/diseases-conditions/people-high-risk-for-severe-illness-covid-19.html
But no doubt she'll refuse to look at anything else. Like she says: she doesn't need it. She has what she wants to hear.
Fat people are 391% more likely to die from covid
