Yesterday, the World Health Organization (WHO) launched the Global Diabetes Compact. It helps countries implement programmes to prevent and manage this disease, so that fewer people get sick, and those afflicted can receive quality care and affordable treatment.
Singapore is committed to this mission. It has been 5 years since we declared a “War on Diabetes”, and this battle goes on. We can win this battle through healthy lifestyles, early detection, and good disease management. The fight continues even amid the pandemic – diabetes complicates the treatment of many diseases, including COVID-19.
It is 100 years since scientists at the University of Toronto discovered insulin. This makes 2021 a particularly meaningful year to launch the Global Diabetes Compact, which Singapore strongly supports. Let’s continue to work together to tackle this disease. – LHL
