Figures from the most current 2019 International Diabetes Atlas report indicates that over half a million (552,400) Kenyans - aged between 20 and 79 years - suffer from the condition.
According to the report, these numbers are likely to be an underrepresentation of the real 'picture' on the ground since it is estimated that about 40 percent (243,500) of people with the condition in Kenya are undiagnosed and are thus unaware that they have diabetes.
