The health body explains: “The majority of people who do get coronavirus – whether they have diabetes or not – will have mild symptoms and don’t need to go into hospital.
“However, everyone with diabetes, including those with type 1, type 2, gestational and other types, is more vulnerable to developing a severe illness if they do get coronavirus.”
As it points out, in adults with diabetes, there are certain factors that increase risk of serious illness like being older, having a high HbA1c (average blood sugar), or having a history of diabetes-related complications.
Type 2 diabetes – what to look for
Many people have type 2 diabetes without realising. This is because symptoms do not necessarily make you feel unwell.
