COVID-19 Impacts People with Diabetes
If COVID-19 is contracted, those who have diabetes are more likely to suffer serious consequences. The risk of diabetic ketoacidosis or hyperglycaemia can increase as a result of the virus making blood sugar levels harder to control. As a result of their weakened immune systems, people with diabetes are also more prone to infections. To lessen the chance of COVID-19 problems, it is essential for patients with diabetes to follow preventive practises such glycaemic control, social isolation, mask use, excellent hand hygiene, and wearing protective clothing. Diabetes must be managed during this time with regular communication with healthcare professionals.
