Federal workers munch on candy to find diabetes
Federal employees in nine cities took fudge bar tests during work hours as part of a Public Health Service diabetes screening project. More than 25 000 workers were tested since 1960, with 210 diabetes cases confirmed after follow up blood studies. The program used an Auto Analyzer to process samples and aimed to gauge sugar tolerance quickly.
