I have seen about dozen news stories where the person who died is described as having “no underlying conditions” when they are clearly obese if not morbidly obese (plus a dozen more mentioning diabetes). So many people are fat these days it’s become normalized. I know plenty who walk around 30-50lbs overweight and don’t think of themselves as obese because they’re comparing themselves to utter landwhales instead of fit people. You see this going on even in military/LE setting. It’s disgraceful. If story after story about fats dying of COVID doesn’t get people to wake up and change their lifestyle what will?

As something gets cheaper, people always use more of it. Never before has food been this cheap or plentiful. Our genetics haven't adjusted yet but nature is working on it faster than anything else.

I know a woman who is at least 100 pounds overweight and she calls herself "chubby".
