Diabetes Management in The Face of the Coronavirus Pandemic
Journal: Journal of Diabetes and Endocrinology Research (Vol.2, No. 2)Publication Date: 2020-04-10
Abstract
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, many diabetics have found themselves lost in trying to understand how to best manage diabetes symptoms and complications. Current research shows that diabetics are more at risk of acquiring serious complications as a result of COVID-19 such as diabetic ketoacidosis, adult respiratory distress syndrome, etc. These risks come from the fact that the COVID-19 virus attacks a similar receptor which is upregulated in most diabetic patients' cases. Therefore, extra precautions must be taken for this population group in regard to management and treatment of symptoms in order to curb the potential for decreased outcomes.
