Hey. Great job!

Next time I’d title the post better, so people don’t trash talk about.

Thanks for making something relevant!

Diabetes and obesity are co-morbidities to the coronavirus. That would suggest that the "young" population of America will be more at risk of dying from it if they catch it than that of South Korea.

Obesity rate:

US 36%

Italy 20%

South Korea 5%

Wait... I hadn't noticed until now.

The fatality rate in the US for 30-39 year-olds is 7 times South Korea's, and Italy's is 4 times South Korea's.

The obesity rate in the US is 7,2 times South Korea's (36 to 5), and that of Italy is 4 times South Korea's (20 to 5).

That is a very weird correlation.
