That was totally not a joke. I seriously think that public should revert to good old fat-shaming to coerce obese people to get on Wegovy (and yes, very obese ones will suffer side effects - how else do you expect to lose 20-25% of your body mass? naturally it has to be painful). Simply to reduce medical and social costs of obesity, these people need to be shamed into taking them. Obesity needs to be de-normalised socially so that people who are still obese, perceived as oddballs and finger-pointed at. Especially since in America, poor people are habitually shaming, and these days, when obesity is fixable with a guarantee by taking a $1300 drug, fat-shaming became poor-shaming.
As a matter of fact, if now in 2024 you are still obese, you are either poor, or you don't care.
