Abstract

I began watching the BBC's Panorama documentary Diabetes: The Hidden Killer but got frustrated and had to turn it off. I have had type 1 diabetes for 28 years and am shocked at the resources thrown at people with type 2, which can easily be prevented. This funding would be better used on research into type 1 diabetes and its treatment.
