According to the CDC it does

Yeah, that’s what I was hearing right from the start of this thing. It’s easy for me to opine being at a healthy weight. But them’s the facts.

But it’s really, really weird I think they haven’t been reading the public the riot act on this issue. And it’s been 18 months. This “body positivity” and “being fat is healthy”, now there’s some genuine disinformation.

Maybe, if the authorities were doing their job a bit better, this young lady wouldn’t feel compelled to do it in the first place? Because in a way, that’s kind of what’s happening. Yeah, maybe rude, though probably what people need to hear, get right down to it.

Whew! I need to take a shower after plowing through some of that bullshit. Get a load of this gibberish word salad, the whole page is weasel word and thought ending cliches:

“Obesity is a complex disease with many contributing factors. Neighborhood design, access to healthy, affordable foods and beverages, and access to safe and convenient places for physical activity can all impact obesity. The racial and ethnic disparities in obesity underscore the need to address social determinants of health such as poverty, education, and housing to remove barriers to health.”

I guess the fatties are whities fault too, or something. I mean of course. Being so poor that you get too much food and get fat, is ... an interesting phenomenon, “Only In America” one that I have rarely seen outside the not-so United States. So they come up with this twaddle, it is absolute bullshit.

At least they do allow (for now anyway, be sure to check next week folks) being a fattie will likely get one kilt by the ChiCom bug.

In most of the world poverty doesn’t F around. Trust me.
