Yeah, morbid obesity had nothing to do with it,

It was the 'Rona.

Complications from COVID. Not COVID. Complications. No definition of that.

What a load of....
I am old and well within the most vulnerable group. I go out all the time and have probably been exposed to coronavirus often. Yet I am as healthy and as strong as ever.

So, how does ‘not traveling’ change anything. People still go out. So, what is the difference if it’s the grocery store at home or in one in a different state?

Do masks work or not?

I’d check her bank account for deposits from the PRCs!

Sad story. He sounded like a nice person, but still, he pre-existing condition was obesity. Let’s face it.
Most TSA jobs require you to be around hundreds if not thousands of strangers every shift.
I don’t know if he could have asked to be transferred to other duties while stricken with the virus. Perhaps there are no other duties.

I wouldn't say morbidly obese but I bet he ate real good. Nice rich foods, deep fired anything, beer, lots of beer. Could have had diabetes. High blood pressue. A lot of people have those without knowing. His job didn't require much movement.

Hi. I hope you are doing well.

I am sorry for her loss.

But, even though I’m not a physician, I did stay at a Holiday inn one time. I’m guessing various comorbidity factors were involved.

Many of us who are obese realize we are at higher risk for death from this virus. It simply takes more oxygen to run a larger body and when this virus screws up your lungs, obese people cannot get the amount of oxygen we need to run larger bodies. This man died of the Virus because he had a co-morbity. It is a sad story that is being repeated worldwide.

Those of you denigrating him because he was obese remind me of the people who called us fat kids names all through school. You probably were those kids in high school. Too bad you haven’t grown up and developed more compassion.

My personal observation is that the most gregarious people that I know are the ones most likely to contract Covid-19;
masking and social distancing seems to be irrelevant. Most of them were asymptomatic, in any case.

I imagine a TSA agent would interact with a lot of people over the course of the day, and make him susceptible to all sorts of communicable things.

Covid 19 is one hammer they will use to prevent holiday fraternization and possible organization against a stolen election!
Propogandists certainly are ramping up the Covid fear despite theraputic remedies and a soon to be released vaccine.
WHY?

Poor fellow. He looks friendly. Bet we wasn’t taking enough Vitamin D3. His weight played a part, too. Why are you all being so mean to him?

Sure, neither obesity nor any other pre-existing conditions or co-morbidities ...

Yes, lets bring out a story of someone dying and all hide under the bed.
