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.
