Let us come together to break the rule of halves for type-2 diabetes.
What is the rule of halves?
The Rule of Halves states that roughly half of all people with type-2 Diabetes are not diagnosed; half of those diagnosed do not receive care; half of those who receive care do not achieve their treatment targets; and half of those who reach their targets do not achieve the desired outcomes.
type-2 diabetes is an emergency in slow motion
There are more than 7 crore people living with type-2 diabetes in India.
Type-2 diabetes is the most common type of diabetes, accounting for 90% of all diabetes cases.
It is generally characterized by insulin resistance, where the body does not fully respond to insulin. Because insulin cannot work properly, blood glucose levels keep rising.
Uncontrolled type-2 diabetes can lead to various health complications like chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, eye damage etc.
