The current pandemic of SARS-CoV?2 coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is
a particular challenge for diabetes patients. Diabetes mellitus predisposes to
a particularly severe course of the disease and doubles the COVID-19 mortality
risk due to pulmonary and cardiac involvement. In addition, diabetes patients
often suffer from comorbidities which further worsen clinical outcomes. Glycemic
control during infectious diseases is often suboptimal, and antidiabetic drugs
and insulin therapy have to be adapted accordingly. On the other hand, access of
diabetes patients to outpatient clinics are limited during the ongoing season
urging alternative treatment options, particularly the implementation of novel
telemedicine strategies. Hence, the opportunity of the COVID 19 crisis should be
taken to make a significant step forward in the care for diabetes patients.
