Preventing obesity by integrating weight management into the broader public health response to COVID-19 is not just a strategy for improving short-term pandemic outcomes but also an investment in the long-term health of populations worldwide. By tackling obesity through preventive measures, early interventions, and systemic changes, the clinical, social, and economic burden of the interplay between obesity and COVID-19 can be mitigated, fostering healthier and more resilient populations.

Abstract

Preventing obesity by integrating weight management into the broader public health response to COVID-19 is not just a strategy for improving short-term pandemic outcomes but also an investment in the long-term health of populations worldwide. By tackling obesity through preventive measures, early interventions, and systemic changes, the clinical, social, and economic burden of the interplay between obesity and COVID-19 can be mitigated, fostering healthier and more resilient populations.
