“The data paint a clear picture. The problem is that the world isn’t looking at it,” the report warned.
This makes addressing the problem not only a health issue but also an issue of “equity”, Mikkelsen said, pointing out that many people in poorer countries do not have access to the prevention, treatment and care they need. While the numbers are startling, the WHO stressed this is a largely fixable problem, since the main risk factors for NCDs are known, as is how to best address them.Tobacco use, unhealthy diet, harmful use of alcohol, physical inactivity and air pollution are seen as the main causes driving the soaring NCD numbers.
But WHO argued in its report that there are clear, proven ways to drive down those risk factors, insisting that if all countries implemented them, 39 million lives could be saved over the next seven years.
