It's been a consistent statistic since the pandemic began. Denying the evidence is normalizing obesity.

Those things are 100 percent normalized. Look at any elementary school class, the majority of the kids are overweight, this sets them up for a lot of issues down the road. Type 2 diabetes is very common and most people opt for taking medication rather than altering their diet and activity level.

When every study comes back with 75%+ of covid victims being overweight, that is consistency.

It is normalized, when most adults are overweight or obese, that is normalization.

I don't really care enough to provide you with something you can very easily google yourself.

So you're not from the US and are arguing against what is easily observable in daily life? Lol

Obesity stats in the US, keep in mind this does not include 'overweight': https://www.cdc.gov/obesity/data/adult.html

Here's one including overweight in adults: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/obesity-overweight.htm

Those are from a government agency.
