Abstract
Background: Diabetic patients have shown the worst clinical manifestation of the COVID-19. They are at higher risk of being infected and producing severe clinical outcomes, challenging to manage. Also, the share of the diabetic patient among case fatalities is large.
Summary: COVID-19 is a disease pandemic that has spread worldwide. All sections and age groups of people worldwide have been affected by the pandemic. Diabetes mellitus is the worst disease to have in OVID-19, as studies have shown some adverse clinical outcome that needs sophisticated medical attention. In lack of resources and overwhelmed infrastructure, the availability of these is tricky.
Conclusion: More study is needed about the bidirectional relationship between COVID-19 and diabetes mellitus so that a clearer picture can be emerged out of the fogged situation. Diabetes is already grappling the world, which is suggested by increasing the number of diabetic patient’s number worldwide. Especially in COVID-19, it has become a challenge to contain the disease along with all these comorbidities. The immunosuppressive state brought about by various underlying medical conditions like diabetes mellitus is suitable ground for novel coronavirus to propagate itself.
