Pune has reported a significant rise in diabetes and hypertension cases, attributed to an extensive expansion of health screenings by the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC). The number of diabetes diagnoses jumped from 10,864 to 55,138, and hypertension cases surged from 21,811 to 94,526 over one year. This increase is largely due to the integration of various healthcare facilities into a unified diagnostic network, allowing for better detection of previously undiagnosed conditions. Current estimates suggest that about 10% of the city's population suffers from hypertension, while 5% are living with diabetes. Experts attribute this spike to modern urban living, including sedentary lifestyles and poor dietary choices, exacerbated by environmental factors. Medical professionals are calling for a shift towards preventive care and strict management of diagnosed conditions to mitigate future health risks. City officials view these findings as a significant step towards addressing public health challenges and aim to reduce mortality rates through early intervention.
