Well we know health plays a part in the risk of death, obesity is one factor which in Iceland is 12.4% they rank 17th in the world while the US obesity rate is 30.6% they are ranked 1st.
In a recent NHS survey suggested that over 60% of COVID-19 patients under intensive care are either overweight or morbidly obese.
The study conducted by the Intensive Care National Audit and Research Centre analyzed all hospital admissions of the coronavirus patients at intensive care wards in UK hospitals until now. The findings revealed the following:
Overweight or obese patients made up 64% of COVID-19 patients in ICU.
More than a third of critically ill were under 60
71% of them were male
9% of them had an underlying health issue such as heart or lung diseases
So that puts a third of the American population in the high risk groups, without taking into account age or pre-existing health problems.
