Obesity is contagious

Obesity has been found to be contagious. It sounds pretty stupid I know. It sounds to me as if it might be contagious in the same way that drinking alcohol for fun is, which is to say, not at all. These sensationalist headlines are getting more and more ridiculous. People can take responsibility for themselves, and must not use the nonsense of an excuse that this is contagious like influenza.

It's true. People will use anything for an excuse these days as long as it's "not their fault".

What also amazes me is that "scientists" and researches will waste time and money on a "study" like this.
