    Abstract COVID-19 has become a great challenge across the globe, particularly in developing and densely populated countries, such as India. COVID-19 is extremely infectious and is transmitted via respiratory droplets from infected persons. DM, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease are highly prevalent comorbidities associated with COVID-19. It has been observed that COVID-19 is associated with high blood-glucose levels, mainly in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Several studies have shown DM to be a significant risk factor affecting the severity of various kinds of infection. Dysregulated immunoresponse found in diabetic patients plays an important role in exacerbating severity. DM is among the comorbidities linked with mortality and morbidity in COVID-19 patients. Chronic conditions like obesity, cardiovascular disorders, and hypertension, together with changed expression of ACE2, dysregulated immunoresponse, and endothelial dysfunction, may put diabetic patients at risk of greater COVID-19 severity. Therefore, it is important to study specific characteristics of COVID-19 in diabetic people and treat these comorbidities along with COVID-19 infection, mainly among old individuals who are already suffering from serious and critical infections. This review will be helpful in understanding the mechanisms involved in COVID-19 and DM, the role of ACE2 in COVID-19 pathogenesis, management of DM, and associated complications in COVID-19 patients.

    Abstract Introduction The needs assessment report discusses the effects of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic on a low-income Hispanic/Latino population specifically for diabetic patients seeking food pharmacy services at a non-profit clinic in San Mateo County. Nutrition is an essential aspect of diabetes management, which can be challenging to obtain among low-income populations. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused additional challenges among the general population, making it more challenging for the diabetic low-income population. This project was undertaken to identify the effects COVID-19 has on the food pharmacy patients. Methods The needs assessment consisted of eleven in-depth interviews done in six week period. A demographic survey was given before the interview to assess the background of the participants. Results A total of ten out of eleven participants reported challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. All participants addressed diabetes-self management in their interviews. Results showed that eight out of eleven participants addressed financial challenges when asked about the food pharmacy services. Having the necessity was a motivator in seeking food pharmacy services, which nine out of the eleven participants discussed during the interviews. Discussion Information about the COVID-19 pandemic is still emerging due to COVID-19 being a new disease (Kumar et al., 2020). According to Kumar et al. (2020), case-control studies have been conducted and have demonstrated that individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 who already have diabetes mellitus have increased mortality. In addition to health concerns, COVID-19 pandemic has brought up other concerns for participants in this needs assessment.
