Diabetes and obesity is a risk factor in almost every ailment including cancer and heart disease, not to mention Covid itself. Of course it contributes to filling up ICUs.


are you intentionally straw manning me? i specifically acknowledged what you're claiming, and have been clear about how that doesn't make it comparable to something as fast acting as a virus.

you're fighting a point that has not been made.


I guess I misunderstood. Both being obese and being unvaccinated are risk factors for ending up in the ICU due to Covid. One is morally reprehensible according to some people and the other isn’t. I think we should accept both or none.


yeah fair enough, i appreciate the social disconnect there
