WHY COVID-19 IS MORE DANGEROUS IN PATIENTS WITH OBESITY, EVEN IF THEY’RE YOUNG
Being young doesn’t always protect you. Obesity raises the risk from COVID‑19 — making hospitalizations, severe illness, and complications much more likely. Even if you're otherwise healthy, extra weight can stress your breathing, immune system, and organs in ways that COVID takes advantage of. Knowing the risks helps you stay safer and make better health decisions, now and in the future.
