Inclusive language.
"In alignment with the American Diabetes Association’s (ADA’s) position that diabetes does not define people, the word “diabetic” will no longer be used when referring to individuals with diabetes in the “Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes.” The ADA will continue to use the term “diabetic” as an adjective for complications related to diabetes (e.g., diabetic retinopathy)."

A bunch of edits were made throughout the deck. As of yesterday the word "diabetic" no longer appears in AnKing as of 2/21 with respect to patients. It only appears for complications reliated to diabetes such as diabetic retinopathy or DKA. Thank you for your suggestion
