#Healthy #lifestyle  #Covid

In an opinion piece for the LaCross Tribune, the education commissioner for New Hampshire poses what some vaccine-focused health officials on the COVID front lines might call a radical idea: Why not work on getting healthy to fight COVID?

*“It’s not an anti-vaccination statement to say, vaccinating Americans will not make Americans healthy,”* Frank Edelblut begins. He then cites studies showing that COVID patients with a range of comorbidities are more at risk for both getting COVID and having a severe case of it, and even dying.

And, he adds, most of the comorbidities are diseases directly connected with poor lifestyle choices, beginning with obesity, which he says is *“the Top health condition to death with a 30% higher chance of death, and diabetes with complications with a 26% higher chance of death.”*

All of the health choices are ones that support focusing on getting healthy to fight COVID, Mr. Edelblut says:* “If ever you needed a reason to make a commitment to get healthy, a global pandemic could be just the ticket.”*

Eat healthy, Be healthy, Live lively
