Depends how you want to read data. More at risk of dying if type 1 compared to type 2 but 9 out of 10 diabetics are type 2. close link to obesity and therefore numerically more are dying with type 2, as one would expect. 75% of deaths have diabetic component. If over 80 double whammy.
Sugar in blood equals sticky blood and virus, equals blood clots in lungs. Nasty.
Not just in lungs im afraid to say.
