That the Parliament notes, with concern, the findings of a January 2022 report by Diabetes Scotland, that diabetes is one of the fastest-growing health crises of our time, with 317,000 people living with diabetes in Scotland, including in the Mid Scotland and Fife region; understands that this represents an increase of 5,000 over the previous 12 months; further understands that people living with diabetes require annual healthcare checks to prevent them developing serious complications; notes that a survey by Diabetes Scotland reportedly shows that key care processes dropped during the COVID-19 pandemic, with only approximately 10% of over-18s receiving all key care processes; understands that cases of life-threatening diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) have been steadily increasing in Scotland, and that people from less affluent areas are reportedly most likely to be hospitalised or die; notes, with concern, reports that the gap in diabetes outcomes for the richest and poorest is widening; believes that, with diabetes rates reportedly rapidly increasing and diagnoses more than doubling in the last 20 years, these figures have been significantly exacerbated due to the COVID-19 pandemic; further notes that Diabetes Scotland reported that access to the correct diabetes technology, such as insulin pumps, can be life-changing for the patient, but that only just over 10% of over-18-year-olds use them, and notes the calls on the Scottish Government to put urgent measures in place to ensure that this trend is reversed.
