00:00 We are witnessing a dynamic increase in diabetes infections

00:06 all over the world, including in Poland and the Lower Silesian Macroregion.

00:12 Diabetes became a plague in the 21st century.

00:18 This is why we need constant support from diabetology centres,

00:24 and especially ambulatory diabetology.

00:30 I would like to emphasise the relevance of epidemiological studies

00:36 to the pollution of the carbon-dioxide economy.

00:39 This is extremely important.

00:42 And here I would like to quote Professor McGeer.

00:47 "The diabetes watch starts ticking much earlier than the diagnosis of diabetes.

00:55 This means that the rapid development of diabetes dish-borer infections

01:02 is taking place much earlier than the clinical diagnosis of diabetes

01:08 in the period of impaired glucose tolerance."

01:12 In Poland, 3 million patients have diabetes, of which 1 million do not know.

01:15 Unfortunately, diabetes does not hurt, and patients do not know that they have high blood sugar.

01:19 However, high blood sugar, although very systematically,

01:24 destroys the dish-borer and destroys the neurons.

01:27 It would be enough to do a simple glucose test for a few zlotys,

01:31 and several hundred thousand people would immediately catch the problem.

01:35 A family doctor is able to introduce very cheap drugs for a few zlotys, literally,

01:41 to balance the patient's blood sugar and to ensure that his quality of life and life expectancy

01:47 for many, many years was as good as a healthy person's.

01:50 Tuesday, World Diabetes Day.

01:53 Tomorrow, from 9 o'clock, we invite patients, we invite people interested in their condition

01:59 to the ground floor of the University Hospital.

02:04 There we will test glucose, diabetes, and they will answer the questions.
