摘要
There is mounting evidence that obesity is a major risk factor for severe illness and mortality from COVID-19. There is an urgent need for research to elucidate the mechanisms by which obesity contributes to the severity of COVID-19 illness, in order to identify potential targets for treatment. In this report, the authors analyse key factors which influence the relationship between COVID-19 and obesity.
