Accepted Answer

No: We have good methods of prevention, but no one follows them. We have better and better treatments, but government and insurance don't want us to use them when they have the most potential benefit.

Not really: There is no cure for diabetes necessarily.

Sometimes these people are referred to as cured, but it is only due to the weight loss, not the procedure itself or any medication.
