financial), and difficulty of accessThe Issues/ Challenges
Military closures, cash and medicine shortages and rampant overcrowding of facilities add to the burden of diabetes
Life under current occupation, with its high unemployment, travel restrictions and limited public resources, makes Palestinians even more vulnerable to non-treatment dangers of Diabetes (fatal strokes, amputations, blindness, chronic dental disease, heart failure and nerve damage)
Military Closures and Resource Shortages

Delayed treatment has Side Effects
Shortages in Specialized Care
All diabetic patients are treated with only 2 of the 7 available drugs
There is a scarcity of glucometers with less than 2% of Palestinians using them regularly
