Aquí la palabra "duly" quiere decir que estamos preocupados por el problema de la obesidad con razón. En español, no diríamos "estamos debidamente preocupados" o "adecuadamente preocupados". Suena más natural decir que es comprensible que nos preocupe/obsesione el problema del sobrepeso. Hay otras maneras de decirlo, sin duda, esta es la que se me ocurre. |
