A member asked:

What does rsv do to people with diabetes (type 1)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nothing: RSV is the respiratory synctial virus, which is better known as the cause of the common cold. It can cause significant respiratory problems in infants. Plenty of type 1 diabetics have RSV every year with no particular problems.
