Yes hospitals in some areas are overwhelmed because of obese people in ICUs. The data clearly shows that obesity is a critical risk factor for ICU admission.
Well, I was responding to the comment about fat people in general, not obese Covid patients.
I don’t think the obesity factor should be taken into account at all.
Re your response: ICUs are overwhelmed because of Covid patients, not because of fat people with non-Covid conditions.
