Abstract

Increased incidence of type 1 diabetes (T1D) has been observed during the COVID-19 pandemic.1 In children who were genetically at risk, SARS-CoV-2 infection was associated with increased risk of islet autoimmunity (IA) in some longitudinal cohorts2 but not others.3 Additionally, COVID-19 may accelerate progression to clinical T1D in children with IA.4 We investigated the potential temporal association between SARS-CoV-2 infection and the development of IA in the longitudinal Australian Environmental Determinants of Islet Autoimmunity (ENDIA) study.
