Response: Opinion

I knew it! It is the intention of the politicians to keep us home and not working.
To loaf around collecting checks and eating bag after bag of potato chips until we explode.
I have already put on a Covid 19 pounds but who knew it was gonna last this long?
That's it. I'm done! Next month......I am returning my boxes of Wise,Frito Lays and Pringles
and voting for the other party come November !

Everything is worse when you are a disgusting fatbody. McDonald's kills more people per year than COVID-19 ever dreamed of.

I suggest to get outside, take your mask off, hit the trails and breath some O2. Good for your respiratory health and your overall fitness.
I like to run and I usually run past this urgent care clinic that administer covid testing. People are lining up outside everyday to be tested wearing their masks of course. I am running by them at a 6 mph pace wearing no mask. Lol.. Some of them look quit horrified when I'm coming.
I work in a hospital in the radiology department, and I am not the least worried about catching covid. Actually, in my city im more worried about getting shot sitting in my own living room from a stray bullet.
My husband is overweight but he lost 70 pounds in the last year. He is a firm believer of taking care of your health is the number one weapon against this disease.

Actually since NY is blue and has a death count of over 32,000, NJ also blue had almost 16,000 deaths, CA - had 9,000 deaths and Michigan 6,000 deaths - I think the Democrats actually lost more voters

These states were the earliest hit... before any awareness of the virus. As a result, in January, February (and perhaps even December) no one was taking precautions, testing didn't exist, and hospitals were less prepared... as a result, cases and deaths were out of control. Now with testing and precautions in place, it's easier to see which states are handling it well. Especially if you look at numbers after widespread testing was available (late May). It actually looks much worse for the southern states when you consider the relevant facts.

Being fat is not a good thing. I know, I am.

So I looked it up, because BMI of 35 means nothing to me.

For a quick image, BMI of 35 is roughly a man 5'9" who weighs 250 pounds.
