Can you explain what you mean by "seems like there's no relation between weight and death." How did you come to that conclusion?
I said:
But the article also says that 74% of all Americans are overweight. So if 73% who die are overweight, that seems like there's no relation between weight and death...
Let's say there are 1000 Americans. That means 740 are fat. 100 Americans get sick from COvid and die. 73 of the 100 are fat. Well, that's expected because 74 of the 100 are fat. What does fat have to do with dying?
Let me write the article a different way. Let's say 74% of all Americans are women. So if 73% who die are women, would you say women are more likely to die because they're women?
Maybe I should go eat dinner. I'm just not getting it.
