" 'I've brought together a few friends to help put Huntington on a diet," Dr. David Buchin, Director of Bariatric Surgery at Huntington Hospital, said at a press conference.

Buchin and other officials plan to provide free online exercise and yoga classes and post nutritional advice on the town's website.

Buchin also said he’ll host multiple Facebook Live events to explain how obese people face greater risk from COVID-19.

He cited a study from Northwell Health, the largest health care provider in the state, that said 42% of hospital patients are obese.

Several other studies nationwide have suggested a link between obesity and greater mortality risk from COVID-19. Overseas, Britain is reportedly working on a plan that would label obese Brits as "at-risk" citizens alongside the elderly.

Many people have joked about the so-called "Quarantine 15," or potential weight gain because of coronavirus lockdowns "
