Loading ...‘Clash of 2 pandemics’: Doctors find that COVID-19 spurs diabetes
“Weeks later, they returned the same findings after sifting through millions of patient records. By then Al-Aly had also gone digging into the scientific literature and was starting to come to terms with an alarming reality: COVID-19 isn’t just deadlier for people with diabetes, it’s also triggering the metabolic disease in many who didn’t previously have it.”
“It took a while to convince me,” said Al-Aly, who directs the clinical epidemiology center at the Veterans Affairs St. Louis Health Care System in Missouri. “It was hard to believe that COVID could be doing this.”
“This is not just a flu that, OK, you’ve got it and you’re done with it,” he said. “You might not be done. It’s a serious thing.”
Just another trick in the book to create more fear IMO
Will they study diabetes onset in the Vaxxed vs the Unvaxxed ?
I am calling Bullshit on this one !
Check the sponsor of this “study” if you can find it.
Some snipets from the Duck
Most health experts agree that the UK is facing a huge increase in the number of people with diabetes. Since 1996 the number of people diagnosed with diabetes has increased from 1.4 million to 2.6 million. By 2025 it is estimated that over four million people will have diabetes.
Among US adults aged 18 years or older, crude estimates for 2018 were: 1.5 million new cases of diabetes—or 6.9 per 1,000 persons—were diagnosed (Table 2). adults aged 45 to 64 years and those aged 65 years and older (Table 2).

Show me a Graph that says significantly More Diabetes diagnosis were made in 2020 than 2019
