“…COVID-19 may even spread from touching the frequently touched surfaces the infected person may have touched. Diabetic patients can take precautions and save themselves from COVID-19 infection by (Laffel 2000;Bornstein et al 2016;Qin et al 2019;Umpierrez and Pasquel 2017;Tandon et al 2017;Prajapat et al 2020) washing hands frequently, avoiding contact with infected person and surfaces that were touched by others, regularly cleaning and disinfecting potentially contaminated surfaces like tabletops, door handles, countertops, etc., and not touching the mouth, eyes, or nose, with unwashed hands; follow social distancingstaying at least 6 feet away from anyone in public places; avoiding any contact with sick people, especially with those having fever, cough, or both; getting at least 7-h sleep at night to keep the immune system strong and reducing the stress level as much as possible; and maintaining suitable intake of fluids and food but ensuring that this is as per the diet plan to keep good control over the blood sugar levels (Liu et al 2020a;Zhao et al 2020).…”

The aim of the present review is to overview the common properties of corona virus and hence proofs well beginning of corona virus in persons with diabetes, and its treatment. Globally, it has been observed that according to the statistics, India has the second largest number of people with diabetes. Literature review has been implemented within the databases using suitable keywords. For persons suffering from diabetic disorder, the COVID-19 infection becomes a dual challenge. Diabetes is a severe metabolic situation which causes the sugar levels in the blood to increase than the normal level. Normally, communicable disease like COVID-19 is more prevailing in patients with diabetes. Diabetic patient has poor immune response to infections. The different bacterial, viral, parasitic, and mycotic infections showed increased probability in diabetic patients as compared to non-diabetic patient. All these conclusions clear out the intention that the diabetic patients are more susceptible to enhanced inflammatory response that may lead to rapid spreading of COVID-19 infection with high rate of mortality. In the present situation of pandemic, managing diabetes seems to be quite challenging and diabetic patient having COVID-19 infection should follow normal course of antihypertensive and antidiabetic drugs prescribed with the exception of sodium glucose co-transpoters-2 inhibitors which would increase the risk of dehydration and ketoacidosis. In view of above discussion, this article highlights the proposed mechanism of COVID-19 infection linking it with diabetes, antidiabetic drugs to be used in COVID-19 infection along with their advantages, and disadvantages and management of COVID-19 infection diabetic patient.
