Non-communicable diseases cause nearly three-quarters of deaths in the world: WHO report -Sneha Mordani

-India Today

Non-communicable diseases like heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and lung disease cause more deaths than infectious diseases globally, according to a WHO report.

Nearly three-quarters of all deaths in the world are caused by non-communicable diseases such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes and respiratory illnesses and 17 million people under the age of 70 die of NCDs every year, according to a report by the World Health Organisation.

The WHO report, released at the UN General Assembly, said that low and middle income countries account for 86% of these premature deaths. Most of this could be avoided or delayed if people had access to prevention, treatment and care, the report added.
