Eric many thanks for highlighting our article. I just want to stress that we estimated the potentially number of preventable deaths (10% and 15%) associated with 5 and 10 min increases in physical activity given the entire population increases their activity.

And reduction of sedentary time by 30 minutes/day was also associated with a significant mortality benefit, albeit less than the increase in physical activity
