0.07 is 7%, 1.5 is 150%, 0.07 x 1.5 = 0.105 which is 10%
So in short person under 40 has 7% of the risk compared to a person aged 50-59. Person with diabetes under 40 has 10% (7% x 1.5) of the risk of a person aged 50-59 that doesn't have diabetes. Same ratio as I thought just a 100th or so out!!
Takeaway is the risk someone aged under 40 is quite small either way but as a diabetic still best to exercise caution and also awaiting partha kar's analysis!!
