The incongruous reality of Cavuto’s rant...he has Multiple Sclerosis.
Risk factors, if you dig a little deeper, are heightened by COVD, if you have MS. One way is because MS wears at the myelin sheath surrounding a nerve and therefore can affect the function of that muscle. A MS lesion in the brainstem can cause sudden death, because it seems to cause breathing issues, caused by autonomic dysfunction.

MS patients are more at risk for pneumonia, and more at risk than a normal person, if they should get COVD. There are warnings on the National Multiple Sclerosis site, on that fact
AND
to those who take DMT (disease modifying treatments). Mainly all MS treatments are DMTs. When it comes to risk of the DMT continuation brings
a special page up on the MS National Org. site deal with whether to stop the DMT and the risk of that versus the risk of COVD.
Here’s the link to that page:

The man has not done his homework on this disease and how it raises risks for him, a long time MS patient, and for fellow MS patients.
In that clip Neil Cavuto is basically practicing medicine without a license.
