    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister is aware that with proper monitoring and treatment most diabetic people can live very happy, healthy and productive lives. However, almost one-third of those who have diabetes are actually not aware that they have it. Today, there are many patients in Kenya particularly, in the rural areas who are not aware that they are suffering from diabetes. Apart from the monitoring and treatment of glucose levels, this should also involve the use of basic instruments like the lancets and glucose monitors. The question I want to ask on behalf of all Kenyans, particularly those who live in the rural areas is: What has the Assistant Minister done to subsidize the cost of treatment for those who are already involved in managing their sugar levels? What has he also done to subsidize the cost of testing so that people can know their status as far as diabetes is concerned?"
