Interesting facts about the number of people who have Diabetes in America and those worldwide

There are 20.8 million children and adults in the United States, or 7% of the population, who have diabetes. While an estimated 14.6 million have been diagnosed, unfortunately, 6.2 million people (or nearly one-third) are unaware that they have the disease.

With so many people affected by diabetes, the American Diabetes Association has compiled diabetes statistics on the impact of the disease and its complications.

The number of diabetics world-wide is expected to double by the year 2010, to 220 million.
