Does that cover risky behavior that could lead to hospitalization as well? Lets be honest, we did collect quite a bit of data over the pandemic years and your risk of hospitalization from COVID is not some random chance but determined by your state of health.
Differently put, i am having a hard time calling healthy teenagers selfish if nobody thinks about calling anyone with a still obese BMI after 2 years the same. Because to be perfectly blunt, looking at the numbers the later is a lot bigger of a problem then the former.

https://www.cdc.gov/pcd/issues/2021/pdf/21_0123.pdf https://www.cdc.gov/pcd/issues/2021/pdf/21_0123.pdf
Figure 1 has leading underlying medical conditions. Hypertension, Lipid metabolism (cholesterol), obesity itself, diabetes and coronary atherosclerosis being the first 5.
Table 1 has the numbers of hospitalized. ~95% had two or more on the list.
