It might be all type-1 diabetics care about, but for the 90-95% of diabetics that are type-2 much less accuracy is needed.
- rrrrrrrrrrrryan 3y agoWell, 25% of those type-2 diabetics take insulin, but yes, those that don't take insulin may be able to derive some value from a less accurate sensor. I just don't know why you'd choose the less accurate thing when it's your health. I think the non-invasive stuff makes the most sense for people who don't have diabetes yet. Nothing will be covered by insurance for them and the non-invasive tech might be cheaper, and it can nudge them to make healthier eating decisions.
