Early data from Asian countries had a double correlation. Skinnier and masked nations had less problems than fatter, maskless nations.

When the virus swept Europe and North America, once, twice, thrice, mask mandates did not have this correlation to lower infections and fatalities, because it couldn't ride on the back of the actual factor in the initial results from Asian countries: it was obesity.

WuFlu is more effective at infecting respiratory tract cells and adipose cells. Obese people have a much, much higher viral load than skinny people. So more spread and worse symptoms for fatties. Fat people also synthetize less Vitamin D, and low vitamin D is a huge risk factor. So much that ewrly treatment with high doses of Vitamin D lowers hospitalisations and mortality significantly.

When compared to the US, Mexico, most of Europe, etc, Japan has an extremely low obesity rate, and their fat people are nowhere near the level of "fat" you picture when thinking about obese Americans.

Case in point, for 2021, Sweden has the lowest excess mortality in Europe and there never was a mask mandate or lockdown there ( they shut some schools and very large gatherings for a few weeks at some point, that's about it ).

If masks and lockdowns had a significant positive impact, Sweden would not be sitting near the bottom of excess mortality for 2020 and at the very bottom for 2021.
