OH CRAP! I resemble that!!!
ok so what is it with diabetes or obesity that makes the virus worse? what factors ? oxygen? blood sugar? insulin?
It’s over folks let’s get back to work
I agree that the large majority of people do not get severely ill. However, those who do get very ill have a high morbidity and mortality.
I would not put much stock in this doctors thesis. As it is very provably False.
Pre-diabetic is a moving target.
My blood sugar is exactly the same as it was 25 years ago.
It does seem that they keep moving the value where they consider you pre-diabetic. I recently pissed off my 36 year old doctor by bringing in a copy of my blood work from 1993 to show her that nothing had changed. I received one of those “if looks could kill” stares from her.

Yep, doctors here say the handful ( only 16 in Tulsa )
were mostly obese, elderly, stage 4 cancer. No need to test ~ just mark it, if “suspected “ $$$$$$$$$$$
A town of 400,000 and we’re locked down for weeks for 16 deaths ~ most of whick would have been marked “flu”/ “pneumonia”/ “cancer” any other year
And we’ve had two double-homicides of older folks within a mile of me ~

The psycho FearBros are having full out delirium tremens symptoms today. Wouldn’t be surprised at some suicide attempts next week.
Gee, it is almost as if a Chinese bio-weapons lab custom tailored a virus just to go after a nation of fat people like the USA.
Infectious Disease Expert Says His Clinic Has Not Seen ANYONE UNDER 70 Who was not Obese or Pre-Diabetic Get Seriously Ill with COVID-19 (VIDEO)The VA has advised me that there is no such thing a "pre-diabetic," so this must be fake news. </sarcarm>
Could be. They might have been drowned out by unProfessional and Exclamation Point Girl!!! and some of the others.
Some people won’t cross a busy street. Some people check for traffic. Some people *play* in traffic.
