MEXICO CITY - A Mexican who was once the world's heaviest man has beaten the coronavirus, helped - he believes - by several years of dieting, exercise and stomach-reduction surgery that saw him shed hundreds of kilos.

The 36-year-old now weighs around 208 kilos, but his history of diabetes, high blood pressure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease made his battle against the virus particularly grueling. Mexico, which has the world's fourth-highest Covid-19 death toll, has the highest obesity rate on the planet among children and the second-highest among adults.Many of the dead suffered from at least one underlying condition such as hypertension, diabetes and obesity, often associated with a poor diet and lack of exercise.
