The UK government has concluded people with a higher BMI are more likely to test positive, more likely to require admission to the ICU if they do test positive, and ultimately twice as likely to die. They also conclude that this may explain the racial disparity in COVID infections as Black Women are three times a likely to be obese in the UK as Asian men. I have not checked their methodology, so this paper could be garbage, but I guess that because doctors have financial incentives to classify every death as COVID, and obese people die more and have more health problems, we naturally see more obese among the casualties.

So the virus is racist and hates obese people.

Clutching at straws a bit but someone with poorer overall health is going to be more susceptible to illness, right? Not like anyone can go to a gym to sort it out lately either :s

Who should I trust? Should I trust the media? Should I trust the politicians? Should I trust my search results?

Should I trust some brand new website with a ton of numbers on it?

I'll keep thinking about that on my way to my pharmacy where I'll find out they're refusing to dispense it for reasons.

I’m curious what adjusted deaths per million means.

It looks like the graph is showing countries that were doing testing on minor cases (which would have recovered with no/little treatment) vs those that would only test you if you were in a severe condition (or even post mortem in the case of many elderly care home residents in the UK).

I have links to the UK and Greece, I can tell you in Greece the people, government and other organisations took the virus very seriously and had a very effective lockdown, essentially eliminating the virus from the country. At that point people started to break lock down as there was no threat and the government capitulated.

The fact there was such a severe lock down but no cases has caused a backwards think in Greece that there never was a virus and it was a hoax (instead of the correct rational which is the lockdown prevented the spread of the virus). Unfortunately as the borders reopened and people ignore social precautions the insidious virus is worming its way back into the country and looks about to explode.

Incidentally my elderly aunt who lives in Athens passed away a couple of weeks ago and her cause of death was not listed as Covid. She was an absolute star whenever we visited. She’d ask who wanted a pizza and who wanted souvlakia. Regardless of how adamant we were she should only order one or the other she’d always get everybody both. And she always had beer in for guests. Absolute legend.

What do any of these numbers mean?
I don't know half the words, can someone explain?
What methods or what studies or who these people were.
I don't know who adjusted which way or what that means.
I am completely confused.
I don't know the truth and I no longer know what truth is if I had to explain to someone.

Everyone is lying as hard as they can!

I don't know who writes the things that the people on TV tell me.
I don't know who makes the links and I don't know who writes the words those links take me too.
I don't know if any of these people exist.
I've never met them.
I'm not sure I know who is controlling the people who are controlling me.
Can't believe the ones who tell me they know.
China is rising against me.
So is the Russian.
America this is quite serious.
America this is the impression I get from looking in the television set.
America is this correct?
I’d better get right down to the job.

i have a buddy who has a pregnant wife, they have been going to the biggest hospital in miami every week


i spoke with him for about an hour yesterday and he claimed the hospital is pretty much empty

they dont allow people to sit in the waiting room and the doctors are saying the ICU is empty and they have tons of room

Meanwhile they say on the news daily ICU's in most areas are at 100% capacity and they are moving equipment to regular rooms to make intensive care areas out of normal rooms

Whos lying?

I think he is nuts to have a baby right now but he does not give a fuck

also

i have been sick 3 times and im very healthy

You have neither the time nor the means to ascertain the truth, pal. Pick whichever truth validates your worldview and FITE IRL those who disagree with you.

My namesake made his own fortune in the world and then he and his fortune were smashed to bits by nature. I can only hope to be so lucky.
