The paper doesn't say, but I would imagine it was very high. Googling the statistic says 1/3 of Americans have pre-diabetes.

- peteradio 3y agoSo I guess what I'm wondering is, how do we know we are treating lingering covid rather than pre-diabetes symptoms? Pre-diabetes is not symptomless and metformin is prescribed off-label to manage those symptoms. How many pre-diabetes symptoms overlap with long-covid classification?
- ceedan 3y ago> The primary method for ascertaining long COVID was participant-reported receipt of a long COVID diagnosis from a medical provider. Participants were asked whether a medical provider had given them a diagnosis of long COVID in follow-up surveys on days 180, 210, 240, 270, and 300. See the outcomes section. Also, read the paper.
