In the news this week:

It’s a diabetes heavy news spot this week.
First up, an article from WebMD that diabetes doubles a person’s risk of heart attack and stroke.

A second article from WebMD on a new class of diabetes medicine. This one will help control a person’s sugar AND help control their weight. Very interesting!

Another article on diabetes from WebMD. This one on a new way to administer insulin…..inhaled! This promises to help people stay more compliant with their medicines!

And from the “I can’t believe they did that!” files….a hospital used an off duty police officer to pretend to be a terrorist who stormed the ICU and took the nurses “hostage”. He then told them it was a drill. This could have been a MAJOR problem for lot of reasons. Read the article from the Las Vegas Sun to learn more.

And last for the news, an funny (and sarcastic!) article about the absurdities for JHACO and other regulating agencies. You’ll enjoy reading this one!!

OK, now on with the show!
