The World Health Organization projects that the number of diabetics will exceed …………? million by 2030.?

will exceed 350 million

Probably over 300 million will be effected worldwide by 2030, but if this is not the answer that is in the books that your school wants you to study, you will get the answer wrong. So read the books that you are supposed to study, and you will find the right answer. It is possible that by 2030 there will be more understanding on how diabetes is caused, and know that it is curable by that time. Good Luck!

Pinaki This is what WHO has to say: The number of people with Diabetes is increasing due to population growth, aging, urbanization, and increasing prevalence of obesity and physical inactivity. The total number of diabetes people with diabetes is projected to rise from 171 million in 2000 to 366 million in 2030. The prevalence of diabetes is higher in men than women, but there are more women with diabetes than men. The urban population of the developing countries is projected to double between 2000 and 2030. The estimated number of people with diabetes in India in 2000 is 31 million which will increase to 79 million in 2030. As per International Diabetes Federation (IDF), Global Projections for people with diabetes (between the age group of 27 – 79 yrs old), is 246 million in 2007 and 380 million in 2025 which is 55% increase in diabetes population. India, in 2007 has 46.5 million people with diabetes which will increase by 73% in 2025 up to 80.3 million. Good luck. enjoy http://bisbio.in
