Original Note:
The U.S. has higher obesity rates than Japan & Africa. COVID-19 cases and deaths are vastly undercounted in Africa. Studies have found that nearly 90% of deceased individuals at a Zambian morgue were infected with COVID-19, but only 10% tested positive while alive. https://www.bu.edu/sph/news/articles/2022/morgue-data-reveals-true-covid-19-death-toll-in-africa/ https://www.prb.org/articles/covid-19-cases-and-deaths-in-sub-saharan-africa-appear-vastly-undercounted/ https://data.worldobesity.org/rankings/
