Does everyone get the glucose test in your country?

Question

I read a lot about the glucose test on here these days and it gives me the idea you guys all get this in your countries. Is that true? In my country (the Netherlands) you only get this test when there are risk factors or indications, like personal or family history of (pregnancy) diabetic, belly growing too fast, etc.

Everyone in the US gets screened but only people who fail the screen get the full test.
