WORLD DIABETES DAY 2022

Nobel Peace Prize winner, Nelson Mandela once said, ‘’ Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world.’’ Today, as the world observes World Diabetes Day, under the theme ‘’Education to Protect Tomorrow,’’ the words of the great Nelson Mandela ring clear as we experience first-hand the power of education in the prevention, treatment, care and management of diabetes. As the Ministry of Health joins in this commemoration, let us take this opportunity to remain proactive in our behaviour towards personal health and wellness, which in the long run can change our outlook from one of treatment to that of prevention.
