In my age group, since I have no underline issues I am almost immune to it. I even had it and all I had was a couple of days of feeling low energy and some flew like symptoms.
I said that to a friend that is triple vax and even vaccinated his 7 years old daughter and he tried to convince me that because I'm 8 pounds overweight according to some BMI it means I'm at risk for covid. He actually pulled out his phone to show me that I'm overweight according to a BMI app. I thought it was funny.
Almost everyone should be thinner than they are now. I was not overweight but I thought if I lost any weight I'd look gaunt & malnourished.
During the tyrannical lockdowns over a flu I ate better, worked out more and lost 20lbs of weight. Turns out I looked a lot better. Almost every American could stand to drop some weight.
I worked at a FedEx hub for the entire coof emergency when I was 58-60-years old, I did not wear a mask there (lax enforcement by supervisors, god bless 'em), and have not yet contracted the disease. Of course FedEx was "essential." In fact we were continually swamped and frequently understaffed.
I would not believe it existed were it not for the fact that 3 or 4 co-workers out of a team of around 100 got sick with it, none serious or fatal.
I caught it just last week and it knocked me down for said week. But it was just being sick for a bit, and I've already bounced back. It's ridiculous the way people treat it like the plague.

BMI is a joke, know who counts as overweight by bmi about every ufc fighter, professional athlete, and on and on.
BMI is useful as a rough guide to where your weight should be. 99% of people are not professional athletes.
This, plus God only knows how many professional athletes are on steroids or growth hormones.
Waist–hip ratio is a much better indicator, imo. That said, don't expect things to change until Seventh Day Adventists stop controlling the narrative around nutrition.
No it’s really not, it’s a metric of size despite muscle and the opposite of what any realistically healthy person would achieve

I did some research on your friend.
