Look into it. There are an awful lot of young athletes in peak physical condition that have collapsed on the field. A large number of Canadian doctors also died suddenly and unexpectedly.
An awful lot of young athletes collapsed on the field prior to 2019 as well. Look into it. I’ve sadly witnessed it happen before.
From the article, “The Covid-19 pandemic is the primary cause of the decline.” And it is going to decline further. Covid affects multiple organ systems; the acute phase of the infection, it is safe to say at this point, is not the primary cause of concern. Covid-19 infection increases the chances of a stroke 4x and of heart failure more than 10x, among other disorders, within 12 months of infection. [1] A chief scien…
For everybody or for some people? What is the causal chain?

See how silly this line of reasoning is when you don't feel bothered by a need to provide data or statistics?
* If the vaccine is safe and effective, life expectancy would improve some over 2020
* If the vaccine is safe and ineffective, life expectancy would stay about the same as 2020
* If the vaccine is unsafe and ineffective, life expectency would drop below 2020
We are now witnessing the third outcome.

it’s not a lifestyle problem. neither willpower nor lifestyles have changed much. processed carbs being addictive, however… medication that treats it like the medical problem it is, instead of berating people for a lack of willpower that they were never missing to begin with, will fix it https://www.mounjaro.com/

"However, whether reinfection adds to the risk incurred after the first infection is not clear."
The sentence you’ve quoted, from the abstract of the paper, refers to the state of knowledge before this paper was written/published. The results section of the paper updates this knowledge. It says: “Compared to those with first infection, those with reinfection exhibited increased risk and excess burden of all-cause mortality, hospitalization, and at least one sequela in the acute phase and the post-acute phase of…

The effects are also compounding with each re-infection.

It's mostly about diet, not calories burned, unless you're burning a LOT of calories each day.
Also, just not being sedentary all day is associated with a ton of positive health outcomes (possibly mental even more than physical) independent of body fat percentage. So it’s worth it all on its own.
