Diabetes Care—If Not Now, When
Posted by EcoSox on Nov 14th 2024
World Diabetes Day is celebrated every November 14th. It is a global event that aims to raise awareness about diabetes and its impact on people worldwide. This year's theme is "Access to Diabetes Care—If Not Now, When?"
The day honors Frederick Grant Banting, a Nobel laureate who co-discovered insulin. It's a day to learn about the different types of diabetes, understand the risk factors, and discover ways to manage or prevent this disease.
World Diabetes Day is the world's largest diabetes awareness campaign, reaching over 1 billion people in over 160 countries.
If you or someone you know is living with diabetes, there are resources available to help. Talk to your doctor, join a support group, and learn about the latest advancements in diabetes management. Together, we can raise awareness and empower people to live healthier lives.
