One-third of the patients who died from corona were diabetics, according to a new and comprehensive study published in the journal Lancet.

Previous studies have shown that diabetics have an increased risk of developing more severe morbidity and complications of Covid-19, and are also at higher risk for mortality.

However, this is the first study to show how much more at risk they are, and also to evaluate the independent effect of type 1 and type 2 diabetes separately.

"All types of diabetes are independently associated with a significantly increased risk of death in a hospital when the cause of hospitalization is corona," the researchers determined.

After examining all the data the researchers found that compared to people without diabetes, people with type 1 diabetes were 3.5 times more likely to die in hospital as a result of corona, people with type 2 diabetes were 2.03 times more likely to die in hospital during corona hospitalization.
