Obesity has been identified as an important risk factor for COVID-19 severity [1]. Besides, several reports also suggested that obesity (or higher BMI) may also be associated with a higher susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection [1, 2] although this remains unclear. Going beyond BMI, this research letter provides insights into the associations between several anthropometric characteristics and the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection, using exhaustive seroprevalence data acquired in a large population-based sample.
