As the article below says, diabetes has "exploded" everywhere, with the number of cases increasing by 4X or more since 1980. And a lot of diabetics don't even know they are diabetic, so they are walking around untreated. A lot of this undoubtedly has to do with poor lifestyle choices.........processed food consumption, obesity, lack of exercise. A couple of the main risk factors for COVID were/are diabetes and obesity, and of course diabetes leads to all sorts of other serious chronic diseases.
Meanwhile, the big food companies keep trying their best to get us all hooked on more processed junk foods, most of which are high profit margin items. So I am not optimistic that this trend is going to reverse anytime soon.
