Scientists: children with COVID are at increased risk of diabetes

Children who become infected and recovered from the coronavirus are at a higher risk of developing diabetes than those who were healthy.

This is the conclusion made by the Center's researchers United States Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

“SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with worsening diabetes symptoms, and people with diabetes are at increased risk of severe COVID-19 disease”, & mdash; According to the statement.

According to the CDC, those under the age of 18 who were infected with the coronavirus were more likely to be diagnosed with diabetes.

“However, a respiratory infection, other than SARS-CoV-2, was not associated with an increased risk of diabetes “, & ndash; noted by scientists.
