1. Fascinating. Depressing that the conceptually easy helps of "eliminate poverty and racism" and "fund schools properly" will never happen. (I'm one of the "don't know how I learned to read" crew. Could read at 2.5 and write at 3. I do know my mother read out all the shop and street signs for me as an infant).

4. Caveats: https://scitechdaily.com/fat-but-fit-expert-weighs-in-on-metabolically-healthy-obesity/. (Still higher risk than non-obese, or seems)
