The writer is very fast, professional and responded to the review request fast also. Thank you.
The United States has the highest number of COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations of COVID-19 patients, and COVID-19 deaths in the world (WHO,2020).It also has the highest rate of obesity in the world with approximately 42.4% of its population falling into that category in a2017-18study(NCHS,2020). According to findings thus far, obesity is one of the strongest risk factors for more severe COVID-19 symptoms and need for hospitalization. “A report on 4103 patients with COVID-19 disease in New York City found that the most important clinical features leading to hospital admission were age>65 years and obesity itself, more than hypertension, diabetes or cardiovascular disease” (Finer, Garnett, & Bruun, 2020, p. 1).
Based on what you have learned from the required readings this week and last week, why do you think our rates for obesity and COVID-19 are so high in the United States and what can be done to lower our risk in future pandemics?What role can psychologists play in that effort?
