Novo Nordisk launches “Changing Diabetes Campaign”
We also spoke to Dr Daksha Jivan– Specialist Endocrinologist and Diabetes Expert. We were talking about Diabetes. World Diabetes Day takes place annually on the 14th November and is driven globally by the International Diabetes Federation. In South Africa, pharmaceutical company Novo Nordisk joins the IDF’s call to action by organizing a variety of events and activities under the auspices of the “Changing Diabetes Campaign” which aims to help raise diabetes awareness and drive home key messages. Dr Jivan explained more about how to manage diabetes. The Changing Diabetes will be in Cape Town soon. They will be offering free Diabetes screening that will include on the spot blood glucose testing, blood pressure checking and waist circumference measurements.
