Semaglutide has reignited the debate over who is responsible for weight, and how as a society we tackle it

as behaviour. When it comes to other health conditions affected by behaviour, we are perfectly happy to treat them medically: no one is suggesting we deny statins to those at risk of stroke in case it tempts them to slack off their diets. In fact, taking “personal responsibility” for your disease usually means taking the treatments available.

Presented with the prospect of the state dishing out a weight-loss jab that could improve public health we object. Why? No, this group’s primary problem with obesity is what it symbolises. The fat have sinned: they’re guilty of greed, gluttony and probably sloth too. They can’t just get off scot-free. The only “real” solution to fatness, you sense, would be for these lazy slobs to get up at six, eat lettuce and apologise, sincerely and in full.

“Am pro the drugs, but I do worry about moral hazards and feedback loops between bad food systems and drugs to treat its [harms],” tweeted oneNesta, the UK’s “innovation agency for social good”, spends a third of its considerable budget on, but treats the jab with suspicion, even though it can cause weight loss of 15%.

It also stops people progressing to having diabetes.

Yes

Lab rats addicted to both sugar and cocaine choose sugar before coke … the consequences for the fake food industry will be significant if ozempic distribution is successful. Be prepared for huge resistance and coercion from that industry.
