I recently spoke with my mother's doctor, and he said people who are obese are definitely getter sicker than others. I can't tell you from personal experience, just sharing the knowledge of a good doctor with his feet on the ground treating many people.

My husband. He was in the hospital 5 days, and still has not completely recovered 6 months later.
My friend J. He was in the ICU on a ventilator for months, in hospital / rehab for more than 7 months.
Me. It took all my energy to get from the bed to the bathroom, just a few feet away. I ran a 104 fever, and sweat through my pajamas and sheets for days and days. Then there was the night I could not breathe, and knew -- KNEW -- I was going to die. I used the last bits of energy I had to write short notes to each of my kids, saying I loved them.
My BIL. He died.
I know you're looking to hear that its not so bad, that the doctors are all lying to you, that more than 200,000 people in the US haven't really died.
Sorry. Covid is horrific.

Sounds like you've been through the ringer
Men are clearly having a more difficult time with COVID than women, that's why I was more interested in hearing women's experiences. As far as your experience, I've heard of many women who went through similar whether they were overweight or not.
