The maximum patients with Mucormycosis we saw last month were Home treated without supplemental oxygen. All were having hyperglycaemia. Hyperglycaemia was the ONLY common parameter amongst these patients
It is NOT steroids, oxygen supply, remdesivir or animal excreta. It is POOR GLYCEMIC CONTROL which is causing Mucormycosis.
COVID-19 itself produces hyperglycemia.
Control the blood sugars.
