[QUOTE="Goonergal, post: 2244690, member: 368709"] Hi [USER=522074]@Khova91[/USER] and welcome The short answer is that risk is very personal and seems to depend on blood sugar control rather (and any other underlying conditions) rather than simply being as a result of a type 2 diagnosis.

There are a couple of other threads about this: [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/is-type-2-coronavirus-low-risk.173313/[/URL] (See post 10 in particular) [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/type-2-and-shielding-letter.173338/page-2[/URL] And this government guidance is also very useful for identifying your own risk level and what measures to take to stay safe: [URL]https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/guidance-on-shielding-and-protecting-extremely-vulnerable-persons-from-covid-19/guidance-on-shielding-and-protecting-extremely-vulnerable-persons-from-covid-19[/URL] [URL]https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/full-guidance-on-staying-at-home-and-away-from-others/full-guidance-on-staying-at-home-and-away-from-others[/URL] [/QUOTE]
