  1. “The gene is present in around 14 per cent of the Polish population, compared to 8-9 per cent in Europe as a whole and 27 per cent in India, said Marcin Moniuszko, the professor in charge of the project.”

  2. We know pretty much from the beginning that obesity multiplies risk of becoming seriously ill with COVID. Do you remember some widespread anti-obesity and exercise promotion campaigns? Or maybe *’body positive’* aka obesity promotion movement is spreading and promoting unhealthy lifestyles more and more recently?

    Add to that people getting locked in their houses during lockdowns, quarantines, closing of gyms and even restricting activity on fresh air, getting less vitamin D which is also connected to how severely you get sick from covid.
    Governments have done everything to make people more vulnerable

  3. >Polish.

    Yeah sure. Just like the Polish vaccine, and the Polish covid-curing pill.

    It’s just some academics coming up with bullshit to get government grants.
