Very good article by the wonderful Cathy O'Neil (mathbabe) about Wegovy (she has lost 60 lb by using it): https://mathbabe.org/2024/02/04/why-people-hate-wegovy/
Tldr: it makes it harder to shame fat people.
Harder to shame rich fat people.
Harder to get meds to poor fat people with diabetes, prolly, too.
Yeah, I was going to say... especially when a lot of poor Americans are obese due to food deserts where they can't eat healthily or even start to develop healthy eating habits.
But I'm sure glad Mathbabe and Oprah have insurance that would cover such a thing. When are they going to start for calling for all the poor people to have that too?
