Covid DM: The chances of dying are less than surviving. That is it is likely you will survive. Check with CDC .gov to see survival rates where you live. They vary by state and age.

COVID 19: You would need to factor in your age. The second thing you need to do is to look at how well the diabetes is controlled - if you are in ketoacidosis - that means you would need to get much better control of it. The third issue - is how well controlled is your asthma. If you have mild asthma or diabetes and/or if they are well controlled it may not make a big difference.
