Covid: New Study massive 28% increase in diabetes if you have Covid—including 'mild'—can lead to life threatening Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA): 
The researchers compared large numbers of those who had Covid, and those who had other respiratory infections: and found a 28% increase in Covid patients including the mild developing type 2 diabetes.
The theoretically working mechanism for the development of diabetes after Covid is explained is illustrated here:
The researchers mainly used data from those who had 'mild' Covid: Sars 2 is known to cause damage to the human pancreas, and therefore insulin systems:
As a result the researchers suggest that people who've had Covid be screened for diabetes—they also note the increase in potentially life threatening Diabetes ketoacidosis (DKA):
'Diabetes ketoacidosis has been observed in some individuals without known diabetes even months after Covid-19'
Remember we have millions walking around infected, or who have been infected—and they have no idea about any of this: DKA is considered a medical emergency—if you have no idea you have diabetes how can you know to look out for this?
