How would you like to be a legitimate doctor or researcher having to work in an environment where the wrong pronoun can get you fired? I can't imagine morale is very good there.
Obesity is the worst comorbidity. Some interesting findings in that study. Table 2 (page 11) Some things I thought were risk factors apparently aren’t, and some things I wouldn’t have thought to be risk factors apparently are.

“Results
Among 4,899,447 hospitalized adults in PHD-SR, 540,667 (11.0%) were patients with COVID-19, of whom 94.9% had at least 1 underlying medical condition. Essential hypertension (50.4%), disorders of lipid metabolism (49.4%), and obesity (33.0%) were the most common. The strongest risk factors for death were obesity (adjusted risk ratio [aRR] = 1.30; 95% CI, 1.27–1.33), anxiety and fear-related disorders (aRR = 1.28; 95% CI, 1.25–1.31), and diabetes with complication (aRR = 1.26; 95% CI, 1.24–1.28), as well as the total number of conditions, with aRRs of death ranging from 1.53 (95% CI, 1.41–1.67) for patients with 1 condition to 3.82 (95% CI, 3.45–4.23) for patients with more than 10 conditions (compared with patients with no condi- tions).
Conclusion
Certain underlying conditions and the number of conditions were associated with severe COVID-19 illness. Hypertension and dis- orders of lipid metabolism were the most frequent, whereas obesity, diabetes with complication, and anxiety disorders were the strongest risk factors for severe COVID-19 illness. Careful evaluation and management of underlying conditions among pa- tients with COVID-19 can help stratify risk for severe illness.”

“Safe guess she’s right”
Any idea what the person looks like that she was commenting about?
She apparently was not considering the effect her comments may have on her income.
She made the comments and good for her. Now she deals with the effect of loss of income. Again, good for her.
The USA is done for.
She has had her struggle session and our own cultural revolution roars merrily along.
Or “professional Cornhole player”.
The truth doesn’t matter. Just because he’s right is no excuse! lol.
What a bizarre world it is where national news stories are made when people say distasteful, common things. Like there’s no other news in the world.
You got it!
Covid loves the obese. She’s right. This country is way too fat. Tough love never killed anyone. Covid does though.
