Quote from Junkfood Science: http://junkfoodscience.blogspot.com/2007/02/rumor-versus-facts.html
“Facts
Risks of dying by car: According to the National Center for Health Statistics at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, your annual risk of dying from a motor-vehicle accident is 0.016%.
Risks of dying from a bariatric surgery: The most objective mortality data available (on actual deaths among all those who had all types of bariatric surgeries at Medicare-approved centers from 1997 to 2002) found that the first year death rate after surgery was 4.6%.
Risks of dying from obesity: Actual mortality rates according to body mass index among a 40-year study of 1.8 million people, found the very fattest 0.2% of women at age 35 had an annual risk of dying of 0.18% (compared to 0.13% for "normal" weight women). So, by having a bariatric surgery even the heaviest woman increases her risk of dying about 45-fold.”
