Pretty much. I've long term anxiety and depression which messes with your immune system. So yes, I can sleep for 17-20hours a day and I also catch every illness going. I get ill because of the immune wrecking mental health issues, not because I sleep a lot. Given depression and anxietys prevalence in the population, I'd imagine it played a role in these figures.
