doctors have little clue as to immunology and or analtical techniques to study circulating immune cells in diabetics
see faustmanlab.org, pubmed.org faustman dl, uspto.gov inventor search faustman, pubmed.org ristori + bcg
rather than give unidentified steroids it might be useful to administer bcg as is being stufied in europe and australia
while it is fascinating to observe ketoavidosis the immunological alterations that may raise blood sugar levels to dangerous heights have not been adequately considered

People stricken with COVID-19 who have diabetes, even some with no known diabetes, are coming into the hospitals with dangerously high blood sugar levels that require large doses of insulin, doctors say.
People with diabetes represent 30% to 40% of both hospitalized patients in general and patients hospitalized with COVID-19, doctors say. While diabetics routinely monitor themselves for spikes in their blood sugar and nondiabetics may experience high levels under stress or illness, doctors say COVID-19 poses special risks.
