WHO's Health Report Card Confirms India's Massive Non-Communicable Disease Burden

Diseases of the heart and of the lung remain the bane of India's disease burden, being the top two causes of the deaths, respectively, as shown by the recently released WHO World Health Statistics Report, 2016. Ischemic heart disease killed 1,215,400 people in 2012, which was 12.4 per cent of total deaths. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, a chronic lung disease killed 1,061,900 people, 10.8 per cent total deaths. In the data studied from 2000 to 2012, the 'ranks' of these two conditions had not changed, among India's top ten causes of deaths, pointing to the long-term prevalence of non-communicable disease.
