This day marks the anniversary of the founding of the World Health Organization in 1948.
The main goals of the World Health Day 2016 campaign are the increase awareness about the rise of diabetes and its staggering burden and consequences, and to trigger specific, effective and affordable actions to tackle diabetes. These will include steps to prevent diabetes and diagnose, treat and care for people with diabetes.
Today we remember and give thanks for all health care givers in our Communities and around the world, especially those who support people living from diabetes.
