The comments of SATTAR follow many Facebook positions that were circulating recently, claiming that certain healthy traits protect people from Covid,United States today reports. The first message to be circulated was posted by a page called Bodybuilders against Tilting on July 22, which claims that Covid-19 "does not affect anyone with less than 10% body fat. "

"The virus is only killing obese people who has never lifted weight or worked a day in their lives," reads as follows.

A second post distributed from the Psychedelic Adventure page, whichLists some lifestyle choices they say protect against the virus.

"I do not know who needs to hear that, but you have an immune system and if you managed your weight, avoided processed foods, do not drink alcohol, to exercise regularly, well Sleeping, getting daily sunlight, do not consume sugar and actually.] About your health, your immune system and your body will do its job and you will not have to fear a virus or 'A disease, "said Possedelic Adventure." It's a crazy concept called to be healthy. "

The two positions have since been reported by Facebook as "false information", but they can always be seen on the website. And in both messages, writers will boast of notwearing face masks.

There are still many things we do not know who wears immunity for coronavirus and why. Recently, T cells have been proposed as a possible new hope in terms ofCOVID protection.
