Accra, Nov. 19, GNA- Health experts have expressed worry over the steady but increasing figures in diabetes cases among children and adolescents in the country.
While in Ghana a Ghanain acquaintance had not been seen for a while. When I did run across him he did not look well and he told me he had diabetes and there was no medicine for him. He died shortly after that.
This was over 30 years ago. As the leader of the world our country can do better in respect to preventable and treatable diseases as a measure of good will around the globe rather than a country who is the best at starting unnecessary wars.
Diabetes has doubled here as well. It's a disease which is preventable in many cases anywhere in the world if not treatable with a minimum of cost.
