Associations between BMI and Covid-19 severity in 6·9 M people in England

Very interesting table in the appendix, linked to in the "Supplementary" section [0]. The table is "Supplemental Table 2. Attributable risks and fractions in risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes associated with BMI across age groups" on page 5.

The main datapoint is that for a BMI of 23, there is very little risk.

IMO the last part of this statement is the most important reault of this study:

> We also found significant associations between presence of type 2 diabetes and severe COVID-19 outcomes, even after mutual adjustment for BMI in model 7 (table 2).
