This is one of those studies where you have to dig a bit deeper than what's shown on the surface. Consider: • The only <18's they can track is those who get tested • You're more likely to get tested if in the hospital or showing severe symptoms • <18's rarely have serious symptoms unless they have comorbidities (e.g. obesity) • Therefore, most <18's with COVID that they can track were already unhealthy prior to the disease and already more likely to be diagnosed with diabetes or another chronic health condition. That study doesn't show Covid increases risk of diabetes, it shows that children hospitalized with Covid are more likely to develop diabetes. Two very different things.
