The hospital is replacing many of its beds — built to handle people weighing up to 350 pounds — with beds for 500-pound patients.

This is very scary.

I do see more obese people, many of them young. Many so fat that they have a special way of walking. The hospital is right to provide new beds, obesity is the trend of our times.
