DIABETES MELLITUS AND COVID-19. CARDIOVASCULAR COMPLICATIONS AND COURSE OF TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS AFTER CORONAVIRUS INFECTION

The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, has had profound effects on global health and economics since its emergence in late 2019. Over 770 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 have been reported worldwide, with millions of deaths attributed to the virus. Studies have shown that individuals with T2DM are at a higher risk of severe illness and mortality if they contract COVID-19.
