ARE PEOPLE WITH DIABETES MORE LIKELY TO GET COVID-19?
• People with diabetes are more likely to become seriously ill from COVID-19, than those who do not have diabetes.

pancreas in sufficient quantities or is not utilized effectively by the body to control blood glucose levels. As a result, blood

and peripheral arterial disease (macrovascular complications).
