Age and Obesity are key factors in complications in Coronavirus infections. Obesity is also associated with high blood pressure, heart disease, and diabetes, which are also Coronavirus complications. We present the CDC map for obesity ranges of the various US States in 2018.
Among countries, the US has the highest Obesity percentage among fair sized states, of 36.2%. This is a little off from this map, where the most populous states are below 35%.
The largest Democratic states are California at 40 million, and New York at 19 million. Texas, at 29 million, and Florida at 21.4 million. A lot of the 31 states relaxing stay-at-home restrictions this weekend are in the heavier Midwest states and Southern states. States still on lockdown are on the West coast including Nevada and Colorado, and the Northeastern states surrounding New York, all of which are below 30% obesity. However, the percent differences are not enormous.
