(300 posts)Here is an interesting study, slightly off topic but somewhat related, about physical (in)activity and covid19:
Physical inactivity is associated with a higher risk for severe COVID-19 outcomes: a study in 48 440 adult patients

"It is notable that being consistently inactive was a stronger risk factor for severe COVID-19 outcomes than any of the underlying medical conditions and risk factors identified by CDC except for age and a history of organ transplant. In fact, physical inactivity was the strongest risk factor across all outcomes, compared with the commonly cited modifiable risk factors, including smoking, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and cancer."!!!
