My wife's cousin's husband developed type 1 diabetes (at 40) after he and his family got over a flu-like illness a couple months ago.
They tested negative for covid but this makes me wonder.
- makomk 6y agoApparently the flu might be able to cause type 1 diabetes too: https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn22456-diabetes-linked-to-flu/ https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn22456-diabetes-linked... (In general, it seems like other viruses have a lot of odd and rare effects that just don't get as much attention as anything involving Covid-19, giving the dubious impression that it's somehow different from other viruses in this regard.)
