New global killers: heart disease and lung cancer, diabetes
New global killers have replaced infectious diseases, which focused on the generation of specialists trying to find vaccines to stop them, to alleviate the contamination. These diseases, AIDS, tuberculosis, new flu strains are favored by extreme mobility of the population, new outbreaks of infections occurring after a plane trip from one apartamente de vanzare bucuresti point to another.

Although great enemies have disappeared completely contagious, experts are turning today on what UN Secretary General, Bani Ki-moon has called "a public health emergency, ongoing low speed." This time, target diseases are not contagious, but chronic diseases: cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and lung.

They are coming for more than two-thirds of deaths in the world and in the U.S., in the absence of control measures, they will kill 9 of 10 people. They have in common risk factors shared by a growing number of people, such as smoking and sedentary lifestyles, which are avoidable. In some countries the situation is really dramatic, the absence apartamente de vanzare bucuresti of specialists.

For example, until a few years ago Ethiopia had apartamente de vanzare bucuresti apartamente de vanzare bucuresti only one oncologist, Dr. Bogale Solomon, who had to deal with over 80 million people. "Now we are three," says Dr. Solomon. Even wealthy nations found themselves with reduced funds for health programs and it is not clear whether private organizations occur. A UN special session will discuss the devastating effects of chronic diseases on populations in poor countries, there are preconceived idea that this would be an exclusive disease of opulence. Dr. Ala Alwan, Assistant Director-General of WHO, said that

"Most African countries are currently overwhelmed by problems related to the growing number of cancer, and the region has the highest incidence of stroke and hypertension worldwide."

On a global scale, heart disease and apartamente de vanzare bucuresti strokes account for nearly half of the deaths recorded. Smoking, alcohol, unhealthy diets, physical inactivity and carcinogens in the environment also contribute to the death of a large number of people becoming "global killers" in full harmony with chronic diseases. Their impact is devastating, worldwide. States and Europe United paid a very high price for excess food for too little exercise and smoking: cardiovascular disease and diabetes dominate the top causes of death.

Cancers appear more with age. Eastern Europe and former USSR prevalent lung cancer in men. Europe has the highest percentage of smokers in its population level: 29%. Asia has the lowest obesity rate in the world, but in China, where only 6% of the population is obese, there is a high incidence of hypertension. China also has three times as many deaths due to respiratory diseases than the United States.

In many regions there are very high rates of contamination with HPV, the sexually transmitted virus responsible for cervical cancer and. India is also a victim of the high incidence of diabetes and hypertension. In this country there are 51 million diabetics and lung cancer is most common in men.

In Latin America recorded a clinical picture similar to that in the U.S.: a large number of obese and diabetic, heart attacks and brain making havoc here. In some regions dominated cervical cancer in women.

Occurrence of these killers can contribute to the development of a global doomsday scenario, with more long-term sick and less health funds. Eventually, the money will make a difference chances of survival. While Europeans have an average life greater than African or Asian populations (and even than those in Latin America), they have the financial wherewithal to hold off on new global killers.
