𝑫𝒐𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒎𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓?
- Diabetes is Pakistan's leading non-communicable disease.
- Early detection can change the trajectory sometimes with just a few small adjustments.
- Without screening, people unknowingly progress to full-blown disease, leading to serious complications and higher healthcare costs.
- Managing diabetic patients well can prevent devastating outcomes like kidney failure, heart disease, blindness etc
