There has been a positive correlation between body fat and the presence of AD-36 antibodies in the blood.[6][7] Previous research showed that chickens or mice injected with similar types of viruses show a statistically significant weight gain.[3]
To date, AD-36 is the only human adenovirus that has been linked with human obesity, present in 30% of obese humans and 11% of nonobese humans.[8] In addition, a study of obese Americans indicates that about 30% of the obese individuals and only 5% of non-obese individuals have antibodies to Ad-36.[3] Another study determined that children with the virus averaged 52 pounds heavier than those with no signs of it and obese children with the virus averaged 35 pounds heavier than obese children with no trace of the virus.[9] AD-36 also causes obesity in chickens, mice, rats, and monkeys.[8]

Hrmm so what you're saying is that obesity is caused by a virus and it's actually not the fault of fat people
