#WorldDiabetesDay is celebrated on 14th/11, birthday of Sir Frederick Banting who discovered insulin in 1922 and panted it for 1$ so it can be accessed by everyone. Now his dream hasn't been reached!!! It's time to #ActOnNCDs to ensure adequate #Diabetes care is accessed by all

It’s #WorldStrokeDay. Most common sign of a #stroke is sudden weakness of the face, arm, or leg, often on one side of the body. Other symptoms include dizziness, loss of balance and sudden difficulty speaking, seeing or walking. If you or someone you know experiences these symptoms, seek medical care immediately. 👉bit.ly/3bmxIL8
