you understns dthe difference between social influence (seeing many obese people makes thst "normal", obese people often have unhealthy nutrition habits leading to corresponding offerings, ...) and a virus infection.
And yes, I am for encouraging healthy lifestyle (while that alone isn't enough as there are genetical predeterminations etc.)
@ceilingcorner's main point is that, no matter how healthy you live, an obese person is more likely to infect you. I don't know if I buy that, but I agree none of your answers seem to be on point.
A group of Italian researchers recommends that obese individuals double their self-isolation time to 28 days, using research from influenza epidemics to argue that such individuals are more susceptible to infections similar to COVID-19 and can be contagious for longer periods of time.

Again, you are not understanding the point I am making. It has nothing to do with living healthily.
An obese person is more likely to have a communicable disease. Coming into contact with them can cause an infection. This is no different than COVID.
Are you for banning obese people from public spaces? I fail to see the difference.
