Based on the fact only select few type 2's take insulin injections, more or less based on not altering their diet/exercise, I figured it was for type 1's. Up top the article states "There are approximately 425 million people worldwide with diabetes. Approximately 75 million of these inject themselves with insulin daily." I interpreted this as a reference to type 1's as there are many more type 2's in the world. Regardless, it's really cool news from where I stand.
