What I would like to know is, WHY hasn't the CDC, or any local health agency begun sending out messaging about what people can do NOW and into the future to improve their overall health and immunity? I mean, at this point, Vitamin D deficiency, obesity, and diabetes are KNOWN MAJOR risk factors for this virus and every one of them is PREVENTABLE (with the exception of T1 diabetes). Where is the messaging to eat a healthy, balanced diet, take a multivitamin with D, and get some daily exercise? These messages should be out there along with the mask, hand washing, and social distancing pleas.
I am getting so tired of seeing headlines of "healthy" people dying from Covid only to find a laundry list of their ailments or a photo showing an obese individual in the article itself. These headlines mislead people into believing that everyone is vulnerable to the same degree.
We have a lot of influence in how our bodies handle this virus and that narrative needs to start being told too. At this point, I feel like Americans (collectively) have just thrown up their hands and said "it's out of my hands, so be it." No. Get yourself as healthy as you can and start right now. It's never too late.
