For the 6th time the Diabetes and Endocrine Centre at Mater Dei Hospital had organized a free blood glucose testing to the general public for the occasion of the world diabetes day that is celebrated around the world on 14 November.  More than 250 people were tested and to some of them it was recommended to do further investigations to avoid complications in the future.
