the heart disease comparison is interesting since heart disease is a category of various heart ailments and covid is a single virus.
heart ailments with the same root cause.

Be glad I didn't include the diabetes deaths in here too. This is the real pandemic.

And covid is no longer a single virus. Each variant is distinguished separately :umad:much like those different heart ailments all under the umbrella of heart disease

2030-obesity-prediction.png



The results of a new study by public health researchers at Columbia University and Oxford University forecasts that by 2030, there will be an additional 65 million obese adults living in the U. S., and 11 million more in the U.K. That would bring the U.S. obese population up from 99 million to 164 million, roughly half the population.

The findings suggest that as a result, medical costs associated with the treatment of preventable diseases (diabetes, heart disease, stroke, cancer) will increase somewhere between $48 billion and $66 billion per year, in the U.S. alone

The study, published in the Aug. 27 issue of The Lancet, was led by Y. Claire Wang of Columbia’s Mailman School of Public Health. From Slash Food comes this map of obesity rates by state. Currently, roughly one-third of Americans are obese. Any guesses as to what this map will look like in 2030?

I saw some shyt about how the fattest state in 1992 or so is slimmer than 2020’s slimmest state :picard:

Australia isn’t that much different, the obese just aren’t as big as the super sized Americans but there are some super heifers here.
You living in Australia?

It’s too late; the country only gonna get fatter. This is a fat ass country. I’m slim gang so I ain’t gotta worry bout no shyt like that. But slim people can still be out of shape and high risk too. Gotta be active regardless. But ain’t nothing like being fat and high risk. You definitely trying to book a reservation in the upper room you on some super fat and out of shape shyt.

Login • Instagram <- link to Fauci telling y'all to get some rest and jog around the damn block.





  • Heart disease is the leading cause of death for men, women, and people of most racial and ethnic groups in the United States.1
  • One person dies every 36 seconds in the United States from cardiovascular disease.1
  • About 655,000 Americans die from heart disease each year—that’s 1 in every 4 deaths. (For comparison we've had as many covid deaths in 18 months.)
  • Heart disease costs the United States about $219 billion each year from 2014 to 2015.3 This includes the cost of health care services, medicines, and lost productivity due to death. (I saw y'all posting the 5.7 billion we've spent this far on unvaccinated health care but I already know that's babble cause 5.7 billion $ ain't shyt compared to this)
  • (Black folks make up 15% which is roughly in line with population share of the US for covid deaths but 23.3 % heart disease related deaths. For comparison cacs make up roughly the same percentage of heart disease deaths as black despite having over 4x our population but make up a whopping 61% of covid deaths in line with their population size) U.S. COVID-19 deaths by race | Statista

Now I already know some clown is going to come in here and say

Yeah but most of y'all don't. :mjgrin: No wonder The Gym has almost as few messages as The Salon.
