Original Note:
This misrepresents the results of the study, which found "Individuals with a BMI >40" had "double the proportion of diabetes (13.3% vs 4.3%), [heart attacks] (4.2% vs 2.6%), and [high blood pressure] (39.9% vs 20%)," which explained the higher death rates seen in the obese. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0287218
