> You overeating doesn't give everyone else around you diabetes. This seems like a deflection. Given GP's argument, a better question would be are obese people more likely to spread COVID than non-obese people? Well, we know someone who has contracted COVID can expect worse outcomes if they're obese. Given that, it seems safe to assume that obese people are more likely to get breakthrough infections and/or that they have slower recoveries (i.e. more coughing/sneezing and more spreading COVID) than non-obese people. So it seems reasonable (in a back-of-the-envelope sort of way) to infer that obese folks are more likely to spread COVID than non-obese folks. Now, back to GP's argument--If we're suggesting that non-vaccinated people are less deserving of healthcare than vaccinated people because they're contributing the the spread of COVID, why wouldn't we treat obese folks the same? |
