Why not?
Notice all the finger-wagging fat nurses (aka "heroes") loving the attention.

Where did you get the "FAR more deaths and illness" information? The numbers I can find indicate about 300,000 deaths per year from obesity which is about 1/2 the number of deaths attributed to COVID.
When the "fat slobs" fill the hospital beds and cause a problem for me and my family I will worry about it.
When the "fat slobs" infect me and my family and cause us to be fat slobs too then I will worry about it.
And in answer to your other question, when the "fat slobs" impact the health care system and society in general in the same way the unvaccinated are today, THEN it might make sense for the Govt. to issue mandates. For obesity, that is not the case today and it hasn't been the case in the past. For the unvaccinated it most certainly is.
