National Alliance for Hispanic Health Survey Provides Insights into Hispanic Attitudes Towards Diabetes (NYSE:LLY)

WASHINGTON and RIDGEFIELD, Conn. and INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- As part of American Diabetes Month, the National Alliance for Hispanic Health (the Alliance) announced results of a survey of Hispanic adults and their attitudes toward diabetes. The results showed that while there is general awareness of the disease, Hispanics with diabetes are more likely to be worried that, besides themselves, someone in their family would develop diabetes, compared to non-Hispanic whites and blacks with diabetes. Conducted with support from Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (BIPI) and Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY), the survey sought to gain an understanding of Hispanics' personal knowledge and experience with diabetes to help identify opportunities to provide information and support for the estimated 3.2 million U.S. Hispanics with diabetes and their families.
