SARS-CoV-2 Infection and New-Onset Type 2 Diabetes Among Pediatric Patients, 2020 to 2022
SARS-CoV-2 Infection and New-Onset Type 2 Diabetes Among Pediatric Patients, 2020 to 2022
Obesity and COVID-19 Vaccination Large Sources of Uncontrolled Confounding--Outlook Not Good
By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH
Before the pandemic, the obesity epidemic and it’s secondary wave of type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease were the big public health problems most frequently discussed. The COVID-19 pandemic shifted the focus to infectious disease threats devised in biolabs. However, recent studies indicate we should not take our eyes of the tsunami of diabetes heading for developing countries.
Miller et al. studied a database of pediatric patients aged 10 to 19 years at the time of the index event of an upper respiratory infection (COVID-19 or other respiratory infection) between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2022. The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision (ICD-10), code for COVID-19 (U07.1) as an encounter diagnosis or a positive test result for SARS-CoV-2 as documented by the TriNetX curated code 9088 for the presence of SARS-CoV-2 and related RNA between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2022, and no record of COVID-19 or positive SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection before the study period. Importantly, none of these cases COVID-19 illness confirmed by adjudication and COVID-19 vaccination was not recorded.
Nevertheless, after matching, there was a consistent increase in the short term risk of type 2 diabetes denoted by ICD-10 codes. No matter what the mechanism, this is not good news. We can add more diabetes among young persons as a consequence of the pandemic. Future studies of the metabolic effect of the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein derived from infection and vaccination are warranted given the large population at risk for future type 2 diabetes mellitus.

I predicted in 2021 that we could see an increase in diabetes and obesity in people who got the covid shot. The reason is because there is a perfect 139 base pair match between the Pfizer shot and a gene in the human mitochondria that protects against age-dependent and diet-induced insulin resistance as well as diet-induced obesity. The gene is 12S Ribosomal RNA or MT-RNR1. If there is an autoimmune attack on this protein, we are headed for serious problems.
Given that young people/children were not getting Covid in great numbers -- which didn't make them candidates for the "vaccine" (but many were forced to get it anyway resulting in death and disability according to recent numbers of ACEM) it's not obvious to me that Covid infections in and of itself would be a cause of diabetes. However, the Covid "vaccine" could very well be a cause given the "vaccine's" propensity to attack the immune system. I read a medical article recently (not sure which publication as I get so many - I'll have to look it up in my files) that diabetes is associated with auto-immunity blamed on the 27 vaccines infants and young children are forced to get.
As a leading-edge Baby Boomer, I and my Boomer friends, often talk about how we never knew anyone with diabetes when we were children and young adults. Today, we hear of someone we know being diagnosed every week!! I'm not sure if other medical scientists have made that connection, but I am suspicious of all these vaccines -- especially the mRNA that could be damaging the immune system.
