COVID-19 and Diabetes

Patients with type 1 or type 2diabetes should be more cautious about their health. Diabetic patients may experience more complications if they get affected with corona virus. Few reports have shown that about 25% of people who were affected with coronavirus had diabetes. High blood sugar level in the body of diabetic patients weakens the immune system and makes body more vulnerable to coronavirus and can ultimately lead to death. High blood sugar levels weaken the immune system and make it less possible to fight off infections. Corona virus can even increase the risk for diabetes complications like diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Therefore if a diabetic patient gets affected by new coronavirus they should check their blood sugar levels more often than usual, take more fluids, and drink water often. To reduce your chance of getting infected:

  • Keep your distance from other people
  • Maintain good hygiene
  • Keep your blood sugar under control
  • Make a plan in place in case you get sick
