Interestingly, I don't think they are entirely the same entity, so here is a mini-tweetorial on my thoughts about #COVID and #ketosis:

⭐️COVID has been associated with significant ketosis in non-pregnant pts
⭐️Not all COVID+ 🤰have the ⬇️oral intake seen in SK

1/5 ⭐️Glucose is often normal / a bit high (rather than low/normal seen in SK)
⭐️Does not respond to glucose supplementation alone, often insulin needed, often higher doses than you would normally expect (fixed rate may be required)

But why worry?
