That doesn't actually link to the source and I couldn't find it with a couple Googling attempts. I would be curious to see how they correct for the fact that Type 2 diabetes is often a symptom of poor health as much as a cause of poor health. That is why I included the "all other things being equal" disclaimer. Long term health for people with diabetes is hugely impacted by continued maintenance and therefore there is likely some bias in the data when comparing health rates of diabetes patients to people without diabetes.
