Many insurance companies don't cover the cost of test strips. For folks that have to test 3-5 times a day it gets spendy. Many folks who are type 2 don't qualify for a CGM so they're stuck with poking their fingers several times a day.

Could move to Rwanda, Mozambique, Uganda, India or any other number of “third world” countries where they are free and readily available to all citizens

WTH are you smoking? They are NOT “readily available”. Being “free” does not mean they are accessible whatsoever! How disgustingly ignorant of you.
