[QUOTE="ert, post: 2307122, member: 504712"] People with diabetes with COVID-19 are at a greater risk of worse prognosis and mortality. The scientists will have to understand the reasons for the worse outcomes for COVID-19 people with diabetes. The inter-relationship between diabetes and COVID-19 should trigger more research to understand the extent to which specific mechanisms of the virus (eg, its tropism for the pancreatic β-cell) might contribute to worsening of glycaemic control and, in some cases, to the striking development of diabetic ketoacidosis or hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar syndrome, and possibly the development of new-onset diabetes. Lancet, July, 2020. I will try to find the article. In plain English, stay safe until they know more (or until your medical team reclassifies you as non-diabetic.) [/QUOTE]
