Brief Summary
There were 83,85,440 confirmed cases of COVID-19 worldwide with a mortality rate of 5.4% according to the situation report of the World Health Organisation on June 19, 2020. In India there were 3,95,048 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with a mortality rate of 3.3%. In Tamil Nadu there were 54,449 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with a mortality rate of 1.2% according to the report of Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India on June 19, 2020. COVID-19 infection is a double challenge for people with diabetes. India has a large number of persons with diabetes (more than 77 million). Recent studies have reported rising prevalence both in the urban and rural populations. The incidence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) also shows an increasing trend in the last few decades. Mortality seems to be threefold higher in people with diabetes when COVD-19 coexists when compared with mortality due to COVID-19 without comorbidities. Yang et al noted that among 52 intensive care patients who had COVID 19 infection, 22% had diabetes among the non-survivors. In a study of 173 patients with severe disease, 16.2% had diabetes, and in another study of 140 hospitalized patients, 12% had diabetes. Li et al compared intensive care and non-intensive care patients who had COVID-19. They showed a twofold increase in the incidence of diabetes in intensive care patients. In addition to diabetes; the other common co-morbidities present in COVID 19 patients were hypertension (20%), cardiovascular disease (16%), and lung disease (6%). In this context, patients with diabetes have been listed as people with higher severity for COVID-19 by several health authorities. However, precise data regarding patients with and without diabetes having COVID-19 infection are still lacking. Moreover, the relationship between diabetes and the severity of COVID-19 remains unknown. In this study, we intend to identify the disease severity and mortality in people with and without diabetes admitted for COVID-19 in southern India.
