No. However, there is extensive medical research evidence that drinking alcohol in moderation reduces the risk of developing type 2 (adult-onset) Diabetes.
You do not catch diabetes, it is not infectious. It is thought that a persons genes can influence their risk of developing diabetes but no one gene can predict its development. A combination of genetic risk and environmental factors are thought to be needed to trigger diabetes. When looking at identical twins, if one twin has Type 1 diabetes, the other twin will have roughly a 50% chance of developing the disease. The trigger could be a trauma ie illness or accident or something like that.
Type 2 can be due to over weight or unfit but also normal weight, normally adults, can get type 2. They are different conditions but are treated similarly. Type 1 sufferers automatically need insulin injections or via a pump and type 2 only sometimes need extra insulin, other times it is dealt with by diet and/or tablets. Type 2 is even more strongly linked to genetics and family history than type 1 diabetes. A family history of type 2 diabetes and obesity are the main risk factors in type 2 diabetes.

Can diabetes cause false positive alcohol test results?
No, diabetes has no effect on blood alcohol content. That depends on what type of test you are referring to... Acetone (or other ketones) in the blood/body, whether because of Diabetes, other illness, or some Diets CAN, and often DOES cause false positive alcohol test results if tested with a Breathalyzer. It may not affect the actual blood alcohol content, but it CAN cause false positive test results... THAT is why the result is called a FALSE positive.
