155-country survey shows severe disruption to services for noncommunicable diseases


WHO has released a May 2020 survey, which charts the impact of COVID-19 on prevention and treatment services for noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), since the pandemic began.

More than half (53%) of the countries surveyed have partially or completely disrupted services for hypertension treatment; 49% for treatment for diabetes and diabetes-related complications; 42% for cancer treatment, and 31% for cardiovascular emergencies.

Rehabilitation services have been disrupted in almost two-thirds (63%) of countries, even though rehabilitation is key to a healthy recovery following severe illness from COVID-19.

In the majority (94%) of countries responding, ministry of health staff working in the area of NCDs were partially or fully reassigned to support COVID-19.

Among the countries reporting service disruptions, globally 58% of countries are now using telemedicine (advice by telephone or online means) to replace in-person consultations; in low-income countries this figure is 42%.

It’s hard when you’re in-laws are staying with your family… Many misconceptions and arguments that can’t be resolved. Good thing they decided to leave and live on their own. Honestly, I don’t know what else to do if they’re still with us right now.

Personally I won’t be doing so. It could be very difficult to teach children any sort of modesty and humility in my opinion.

A nurse told me below 2 years old shouldnt be exposed to looking too long at mobile phone and tablet displays, will spoil baby's eyesight sooner.

Yes this should be followed. I see a lot of kids below 2 yrs old playing with tablet. It's hard to see this they may grow dependent to their gadgets and it is not good.
