I think that this is the case, too. Many are vaguely aware of that they may have it. However, they do not understand the seriousness of it. Many people don't take Sleep medicine seriously, including many docotors.
Others are scared away by CPAP. A commerical for one of those anti-snoring sprays breifly shows somebody wearing particularly intimitading CPAP mask connected to a particularly large machine. The implication is that the spray will do the same thing. This commercial is a horrendous disservice.
