At greatest risk from coronavirus are fat people. Was not the case in China because of very few fat people in China. But data from western countries show that being fat and having coronavirus means you are in trouble. Very poor outcome.
Japan still low both on cases and in death count. Why? Very limited physical interaction on cultural level (they touch each other only during sex), high level of politeness (they do not sneeze, cough or spit into other people faces) and very low percentage of fat people. Despite being a very old nation, they are very healthy in general.
So far, among the countries most successful at preventing the spread of coronavirus two have communist governments (China and Vietnam). Communist Cuba is sending its doctors to battle coronavirus in other countries. At the same time, the greatest capitalist governments are literally falling apart and the private health sector is nowhere to be seen in European Union battle against coronavirus. Varoufakis is right, coronavirus will kill private health.
