[QUOTE="DCB 2, post: 2328031, member: 471568"] Sorry for getting late to this discussion, been busy with other things. The following paper explains that diabetics who have well controlled blood sugars have significantly better outcomes as opposed that do not have well blood sugar. I did not discover this paper someone on this forum pointed it out to me. I will not talk much about the blood sugar numbers and your situation, that the topic has already has discussed in detail. Being a type 2 diabetic with those numbers you are definitely at risk. [URL]https://www.cell.com/cell-metabolism/fulltext/S1550-4131(20)30238-2#.XqxOw3EastwitterVI[/URL]. Even if you are a well controlled diabetic you are at risk from Covid complications. The following paper explain it in more detail, but gist of it is that Covid may inhibit the pancreas releasing insulin. [URL]https://www.diabetesresearchclinicalpractice.com/article/S0168-8227(20)30416-2/fulltext[/URL] If anyone wants to know more I would be glad to explain this in more detail along with plan to mitigate the risk. I know that this is in the past, but with information you have given the forum yes you would be at risk.; I just wanted to provide some hard data to the discussion. To answer your initial question being type 2 diabetic puts you a lower risk from Covid complications, maybe yes only if yout blood sugars are well controlled. I hope you are well, Dave [/QUOTE]
