[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2364175, member: 365308"] Your blood sugars go up immensely in response to any viral attack and steroids but the only way to know would be to check insulin production post recovery. Another possibility is that these patients were undiagnosed diabetics who only got tested when already ill in hospital. I do have pals who got diabetes as a consequence of an autoimmune response to a virus that nuked their beta cells so this isn't just a covid thing if that what is being claimed. As always more research needed to unpick it all! [/QUOTE]
