Economic impact of diabetes
• The suffering and loss of quality of life that people with diabetes experience due to the fact that diabetes strikes at the very heart of human quality of life: the ability to live a full and productive life cannot be measured in economic terms; however it is an important socioeconomic impact. It impacts people’s lives through fear of what the disease does or may do to their lives. Humans as well as societies pay a high price as the ticking bomb is costing society millions in treating the many serious complications that arise from undiagnosed and poorly treated diabetes.
