Abstract

Ever since the pandemic started in March 2020, the whole world and the healthcare system were overburdened with an extremely difficult task of curbing COVID-19 as much as possible to decrease the death rate and to understand its effects. Diabetic patients are no different as they constitute a large group globally. Therefore, understanding the biggest factors that affects their day-to-day life is crucial to be able to treat them well and decrease the chances of having high mortality rates among diabetics. COVID-19 in diabetes is susceptible to high mortality rates making them prone to develop nutritional and psychological effects. Further studies are needed to provide better care in the future for diabetic patient’s psychological and nutritional wellbeing and alleviate their healthcare by developing targeted programs, awareness and scheduled home visits.
