I just saw a public service announment on CNBC (9:15am EST) on pre-Diabetes and the possibility of reversal. I found the clip on utube along with with a couple of other clips. youtu.be/wQyGBQoQitAAt the end end of the clip you are directed to take a risk survey at: doihaveprediabetes.org The clip was sponsored by the AMA, ADA, and the CDC. Just saw a second (different) video on CNBC at 9:53am EST. I think this is very encouraging to get focus on Diabetes.

Was the public service annoucement really just only that 15 second clip of a hedgehog and some words on the screen?
There is not a "pre" diabetes. The word "prediabetes" should be eliminated because it is early stages of the disorder. There is a dysregulation of glucose homeostasis and the first-phase insulin response needs to be restored.

Saw 3 short videos so far this morning on CNBC. Here are the other two videos: youtu.be/dYSzAAM1BX8, youtu.be/3YWIaT0G65EI agree with you on terminology but that discussion needs to be had with the sponsors of the public service announcements.

Pre-diabetes cure according to Al Mann was Afrezza for pre-type 2.

Just saw the 4th public service video on CNBC at 12:25pm EST.
This one had puppies with words on screen asking if the viewer has risk factors.
I’m really impressed by this sudden diabetes awareness push by the ADA, AMA, and CDC.
Hopefully VDEX can capitalize on this new awareness and introduce newly diagnosed patients to Afrezza.
