We know this is the group who is the most at risk. Will this cause a massive reform for the nation to lose some weight.



I’m trying to come up with some positive that will come of this.

It’s the opposite. Everyone on lockdown to protect the few that have any real risk of being more than sick

I doubt it. Saw a commercial from CDC last night listing the at risk groups. Diabetes, high blood pressure, etc. Obesity no where to be found.

The “every body is beautiful” and “plus size is acceptable” societal, media and advertising campaigns are dangerous and irresponsible. Bottom line, isn’t healthy to have a body like Lizzo and it shouldn’t be embraced, promoted and celebrated.

No, because the facts of who's dying aren't being reported honestly.

I took my sister-in-law to meet with oncologist to discuss her options for treatment (she’s newly diagnosed with cancer and wife couldn’t go),the Dr. was fat as hell.

No. Being fat is a self assumed risk. It's called freedom. But I have the freedom to avoid fatties and make fun of them.

I don’t believe anyone thinks obesity is healthy.

James Corden did a brief monologue on his weight—responding to Bill Maher’s comments on fat people— in a recent show:
