More data linking poverty and type 2 diabetes is out, this time from the national Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ).
AHRQ reports that people who live in the nation's poorest communities, where the average income is less than $37,000, are eighty percent more likely to be hospitalized for treatment of diabetes or its complications than people who live in affluent areas where average income is over $61,000.
AHRQ found that in 2005, there were nearly 2,800 diabetes-related hospitalizations per 100,000 people in the poorest communities, compared with 1,561 hospitalizations per 100,000 people from more affluent communities.

Editor's Note: This is so unfair! Our current system denies affordable healthcare to the poor, with the result that their diabetes remains untreated and they suffer unnecessarily.
