Long-term sequelae of severe acute respiratory coronavirus-2 SARS-CoV-2 infection may include an increased incidence of diabetes. Our objective was to describe the temporal relationship between new diagnoses of diabetes mellitus and SARS-CoV-2 infection in a nationally representative database. There appears to be a sharp increase in diabetes diagnoses in the 30 days surrounding SARS-CoV-2 infection, followed by a decrease in new diagnoses in the post-acute period, up to 360 days after infection. These results underscore the need for further investigation, as understanding the timing of new diabetes onset after COVID-19 has implications regarding potential etiology and screening and treatment strategies
