According to research, slightly more than 56 million people died in 2001; and those deaths include 10.6 million children, almost all of whom (99 percent) lived in low and middle income countries.
More than half of the children died from five preventable or treatable conditions: respiratory infections; measles; diarrhea; malaria, and HIV/AIDS. The study shows that one in three deaths are due to communicable diseases, nutritional deficiencies, and health problems in pregnant women, new mothers, fetuses, or new-born. Indeed, heart disease and stroke were the leading causes of death in 2001, regardless of countries’ incomes, the study shows.
However, other leading causes of death differed depending on countries incomes. Here is the list for the high-income countries: heart disease; stroke; lung cancer; low respiratory infections; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); colon and rectum cancers; Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias; type 2 diabetes; breast cancer; and stomach cancer.
Here is the list for low and middle-income countries: heart disease; stroke; lower respiratory infections; HIV/AIDS; fetus/newborn conditions; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); diarrhea; tuberculosis; malaria; and road traffic accidents.
For sure you can be free from all these ailments. There is a cure! Educate yourself now.
