Despite the medical advances of the past decades, a number of diseases and health problems are still widespread worldwide. According to GlobalIssues.org, about 36 million people die annually from non-communicable diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and chronic lung diseases. Of the communicable diseases, both viral and bacterial, AIDS / HIV, tuberculosis and malaria are the most common diseases that kill millions of people each year. Another health problem that leads to death or contributes to other diseases is malnutrition, especially among children who are most affected. More than 7 million children under the age of 5 die from malnutrition.
Personal lifestyle also contributes to poor health in many cases. This can include smoking and poor nutrition. This can be overeating or malnutrition. Lack of exercise and sleep, excessive alcohol consumption, poor oral hygiene and genetic disorders are other factors that can have a very serious impact on health and in the worst case can lead to death.
Although the majority of these diseases and health problems would be avoidable, a major factor in worldwide diseases is the fact that about a billion people have no access to health systems and high-quality medicines.
