Covid 19 and Endocrinology

Diabetes plays a significant role in this phenotype because it is one of the most common comorbidities linked to COVID-19 severity and mortality. Careful management, including treatment changes, may be required to protect our patients from the most serious effects of COVID-19, whether they have diabetes or are hospitalised with COVID-19, as well as patients with SARS-CoV-2-induced recently onset diabetes. Obesity raises vulnerability to SARS-CoV-2 and the chance of a negative COVID-19 result.
