CDC study shows ‘severe’ obesity accounts for a bulk of COVID-19 teen hospitalizations

BPR:

A new study from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention seems to reaffirm the link between COVID-19 hospitalization and obesity. This and similar studies prompted Fox News host and master polemicist Greg Gutfeld to weigh in, as it were.

“In the early months of this epidemic, a few loudmouths like me mentioned ‘this would be a good time to lose weight because it’s a risk factor that you can manipulate.’ And we were accused of fat-shaming. Yeah, something that use to be known as good advice is now [considered] offensive by people in the media who would later call you a monster for not getting triple-vaxxed,” he said on “Gutfeld” Tuesday.

“Meanwhile they got COVID anyway,” Gutfeld declared in the video clip embedded above for which you can draw your own conclusions.

In evaluating data about 915 hospitalizations in six hospitals in the July-August 2021 time frame, “approximately two thirds of those aged 12–17 years had obesity,” the CDC reported on December 31, 2021, with about 60 percent of that cohort described as severely obese. more

  1. Excuse me, but I thought the purpose of a vaccine was to prevent the particular illness vaccinated against. The current jabs apparently don’t do this, so they aren’t really vaccines. According to some talking heads, they are now taking the position that the mRNA injections will probably lessen the effects of Covid (but not necessarily prevent it), so in essence are we back to natural immunity as the best defense despite the “official” positions being that natural immunity is not effective?

    Also, people keep offering hand sanitizer, but it usually says anti-bacterial and Covid is a virus. Does anti-bacterial sanitizer kill a virus?

    I really resent having to post these questions here because (a) it shows my ignorance, (b) I can’t rely on either the government or the media for any trustworthy answers, and (c) it’s difficult to do basic research with all of the censorship happening. Whoopi Goldberg and Howard Stern appear to be basically morons because a vaccine should protect them, but it doesn’t, so now everyone needs to be vaccinated with chemicals and compounds that aren’t really vaccines so grandma won’t die. I’m probably missing something.

  2. I doubt you’re missing anything, Wyatt.

    The latest concerns I’m reading about are about the risks of severe auto-immune reactions in people who get vaccinated AFTER recovering from COVID-19. When surviving actual COVID, one’s body possess ALL the antibodies to the disease. Introducing the mRNA spike protein at THAT point sends your body into full attack on its vaccine-infected cells. It’s a fucking nightmare for many and of course the broadcast media won’t report it.

  3. If you factor out obesity and the immune compromised either by birth or by leukemia, the number of kids below college age who died of COVID would be in the dozens. If you had had effective meds available, that number would have been ZERO. You could probably extend the zero number all the way to mid-30’s

    This has been known since mid 2020. COVID, in its most virulent form, hit an aircraft carrier, the Theodore Roosevelt, in March 2020. No way could any of the 5K people on board have avoided exposure. In the end, no one, including officers in their forties, died

    Of course, the media and elites showed their COVID death fraud hand early when they claimed that one NCO died. But he simply dropped dead on the spot with COVID. Any one paying attention knew that bullshit was afoot. Thats not how COVID kills

  4. Whoopi epitomizes the idiocy in re the Chines flu. She is BTW fat as a pig. I’ve always believed that anyone that allows themselves to get fat like that has mental problems.

    As Wyatt notes, this is not a vaccine. Telling me months ago when this crap was introduced, if I took it I could stop wearing a mask and eat out again has morphed into take this shit or my shot won’t work. How can anyone not laugh in your face when you use the word vaccine???

    In some places and countries, if you don’t take it, you are a fucking leper and can’t even buy groceries. My former friend in Israel doesn’t see the irony that his government is now ordering people in his age group to take the 4th!!! shot. Vaccine my ass.

    I have long contended that it’s an IQ test with some pretty bad consequences if you fail.

  5. @Wyatt All that hand sanitizer… I wonder how much of the ‘ggod’ and needed bacteria the over zealous use of hand sanitizer is causing. I guess I am not supposed to question these things as I am not ‘Science’.

    Streptococcus Thermophilus to name one ‘good’ bacteria
    Reduces cardiovascular disease risk factors together with Lactobacillus Rhamnosus and Lactobacillus Acidophilus.
