TORONTO Among all the manifestations and complications of COVID-19, yet another puzzling question is emerging â is the virus triggering cases of diabetes? Like many doctors around the world, Dr. Mihail Zilbermint began noticing something strange midway in the pandemic. More and more people seemed to be suddenly developing diabetes. âMy team usually manage about 16 to 17, or 18 patients with diabetes per day,â Zilbermint told CTV News. âAnd our numbers increased up to 30 per day.â Zilbermint is an endocrinologist and an associate professor with Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in Maryland. The sudden change was surprising, he said, and worrying. A diagnosis of diabetes was also a shock to John Kunkel, who lives in Arkansas, and had just recovered from a serious case of COVID-19 when he discovered his pancreas had stopped making enough insulin, forcing him into daily blood sugar testing, and metformin to manage his diabetes.

Vitamin D and C have garnered much interest thanks to their impressive results in helping to reduce the risk of serious fatalities from COVID-19. Could statin use also help?
