what would be the point? Though some people manage to lose weight through this or that diet or exercise or whatever of course, there is no successful intervention that works on a large scale. Diets don't work long term on average, weight loss programs don't work long term on average.36.5% of American adults are obese, so it doesn't take a lot of other conditions to get to 40%. And 7 months into the pandemic and not a peep from our public health officials about losing weight to fight the virus's lethality. You can lose a significant amount of weight in 7 months.
It's just an excuse to hate on overweight people. When we aren't hating on people who have committed the great crime (through not fault of their own) of having to many birthdays!
I wish there were treatments, other than Remdesevir which is a profit center but doesn't increase survival, and a decades old steroid that does increase survival but seems not likely to be a profit center, there aren't. Oh there are treatments given to Trump even if he's both old and fat and noone's definition of healthy, and refuses masks, and holds covid spreading rallies, but we can't get those. An ounce of cure is worth a pound of prevention but only if you are the President.
