Insulin is such a vital secretion of the pancreas in the human body that without it, our body would not function normally. It is responsible for breaking down the food we eat and converting it to energy and then storing that energy. Lack of insulin means that the pancreas are not producing insulin which leads to diabetes. That means that there is a concentration of glucose in the blood rather than being distributed to cells to carry out functions. This can lead to kidney failures,  nerve damaging stomach problems and problems in the eyes.

Zielflug [23.3K]

Rhinoviruses are transmitted through the air or via contact. We might expect this sort of transmission to require a fairly healthy host (one who gets out and comes into contact with others) and, hence, to select against virulent strains. If we take precautions and try to stay away from people or avoid any contact with people, more hand-washing stations, increased attention to sanitization, and isolation of patients will help to reduce the transmission of the disease and, in the process, may favor the evolution of less virulent strains of the virus.
