Economy GENERAL QA IN ECONOMY 2 years ago
The correct answer is Both 1 and 2.
- India has about 17 percent of the world’s population but it bears a frightening 20 percent of the global burden of diseases (GBD).
- GBD is an indicator used by experts to gauge the number of people dying prematurely due to a particular disease as well as the number of years spent by them in a state of ‘disability’ owing to the disease.
- In India, more than half of GBD is accounted for by communicable diseases such as diarrhea, malaria, and tuberculosis. Every year around five lakh children die of water-borne diseases.
- Researches of the World Bank and WHO did a collaborative step to study the Global Burden of Disease Study.
- The GBD report warned that the LMICs (Low and Middle-Income Countries) health systems are not well equipped to address the growing disease burden caused by NCDs (Non-Communicable Diseases).
