San Marino, Peru, Belgium, Andorra, Spain, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador.

 

The only 9 countries doing worse than USA in deaths/million.

 

Why?

 

How can you be sure?

 

You are right. It’s surprising that Belgium, Spain and some of those other countries are ranked worse. The stats must be off. Ok maybe only 5 countries are doing worse.

A big reason that the US is leading the deaths is because of the huge rates of obesity.

Interesting theory.

 

Let's overlay this with the countries with a worse COVID fatality rate: San Marino, Peru, Belgium, Andorra, Spain, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador.

 

 

Country - Obesity rate (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_obesity_rate)

 

USA - 36.20% (Rank #12)

 

San Marino - Unavailable

Peru - 19.7 (#109)

Belgium - 22.1 (#81)

Andorra - 25.6 (#49)

Spain - 23.8 (#62)

Brazil - 22.1 (#82)

Bolivia - 20.2 (#104)

Chile - 28 (#32)

Ecuador - 19.9 (#108)

 

It appears obesity is not a common factor amongst countries with a poor COVID fatality rate.

20%+ of a population being obese isn't a common factor? What if you factor in age and obesity?

But doesn't the U.S. also have some of the best medical care in the world?  Are you saying that the U.S. medical system isn't as good as everyone thinks?  Cheers!

 

What does obesity have to do with healthcare? I mean it’s a choice to be fat and eat unhealthy. The only treatment is a diet and exercise.

No, I think it is the best in the world. I also think it's needlessly expensive (ie the best comes at too high of a cost). Also, Americans have very poor diets.

What if you did the work to prove your theory?

My point was that American obesity should be offset by the best medical care in the world...but it isn’t...the U.S. death rate is staggeringly high.  Then it is probably due to mismanagement of resources and containment.  Cheers!

Ummm...I mean the CDC link I posted show that obesity increases the fatality rate. And of course the older you are the higher the risk of fatality.
