This won’t help Type 2’s, but it might help Type 1’s.
The question that need to be answered though is
a) does it solve the problem that started diabetes in the first place? Since we don’t know why Type 1 diabetics develop it in the first place…
b) Are anti-rejection drugs better than taking insulin? Since I’m fairly stable on insulin, I’d pass, but then I’m not a Type 1 either.
It’s an interesting development though. Other countries are also on this path.
