What is World Diabetes Day?
World Diabetes Day on November 14 was created in 1991 by the International Diabetes Federation and the World Health Organization, and became an official UN day in 2006. The date is the birthday of Frederick Banting, who discovered insulin with Charles Best in 1921, turning a fatal disease into a manageable one. Its symbol is a blue circle, and the day is marked with free blood-sugar tests, blue-lit landmarks and campaigns on prevention and access to care.
