A survey done by the All India Institute of Medical Science in Patna has found abnormal rise in blood sugar level in people who were infected with coronavirus during the second wave of the pandemic this year. The telephonic survey by AIIMS in Patna dialled some 3,000 people who were treated for COVID-19 and asked them about their health long after recovering from Covid. Dr Anil Kumar, head of the post-trauma department and community outreach, said they asked about at least 11 types of health issues including fatigue and loss of appetite and recorded what the recovered Covid patients explained to them. The survey was also used to advice the recovered patients about corrective steps such as proper diet and exercises that may help them in the long run.
