> we are still at the "those people were going to die within a year anyway" phase, and the "I am okay and have a BMI less than 30 so therefore people like me are okay" phase. That doesn't appear to be true if we look at the UK ICU data. BMI < 30 means lower risk, not no risk. https://www.icnarc.org/Our-Audit/Audits/Cmp/Reports https://www.icnarc.org/Our-Audit/Audits/Cmp/Reports https://www.icnarc.org/DataServices/Attachments/Download/c9b491af-ea80-ea11-9124-00505601089b https://www.icnarc.org/DataServices/Attachments/Download/c9b... Body mass index, n (%) [N=4811] <18.5 31 (0.6) 18.5-<25 1239 (25.8) 25-<30 1696 (35.3) 30-<40 1499 (31.2) 40+ 346 (7.2) Over 60% of people admitted to ICU for Covid-19 have BMI under 30. When we look at frailty we see that 90% of people admitted to ITU were able to live without any assistance in their day to day life before being admitted. (Although we don't know how many frail people were not admitted to ITU because of their frailty). We know that Covid-19 is causing excess mortality in people who are not old and don't have comorbidities. We don't know yet how much, but it's wrong to say that covid-19 isn't a problem for this group.
