Obesity and hypertension are both conditions caused by a person's own damn choices and don't apply to healthy and responsible parts of the population, so hell yeah they should be counted as underlying conditions. If this virus only killed meth addicts I'd be saying hell yeah, open everything up, it's their own damn fault. Stop punishing healthy and young Americans.

Since you clearly have little understanding of this topic...
There are significantly more adults with HTN NOT caused by their own decisions, than say obesity. Not to mention, an individual who has HTN but has it controlled with medication (or in mild cases just dietary changes), still has the diagnosis of HTN. Once you lose weight, you are no longer obese.
As someone mentioned earlier, HTN should be stratified in order to accurately determine its significance as a risk factor for mortality. And as I am mentioning now, an individual does not have equal control over developing these particular comorbidities, like you clearly believe.
