The most common theory is that a 'virus' does something to the immune system to make it malfunction. Some people blame stress but in reality, the medical profession doesn't have a definitive answer to 'what causes diabetes.' There has even been recent supposition that C-19 can trigger it. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2020/may/20/type-1-diabetics-type-2-coronavirus-nhs-study
