104 million Indians may be suffering from sleep apnea

Post by D.H. » Sun Oct 08, 2023 9:33 am

India is now the world's most populous country, recently outstripping China of that title. Therefore, it goes to reason that India also has the largest number of people suffering from Sleep Apnea of any country.

It says that men are at higher risk than women. This statement, while perhaps true, will likely result in women being at higher risk of going undiagnosed than men.

Conditions vary within India, and I'm not sure that every household has a reliable electric supply.

Well if they do/when they do, they can count on you to let them know which plug-in they will need. And to not forget to have an extention cord handy. :wink:
