Popis:	Cancer and non-communicable diseases (ncds) sharing common causal risk factors are not under control. Of 57 million deaths worldwide in 2009, cancer and ncds (diabetes, mental illness, and heart and pulmonary diseases) caused 36 million, or almost 65%. Among 12.9 million patients with new cases of cancer, 7.6 million died of their disease (approaching 60%) 1. By 2030, 27 million new cases of cancer will have been recorded, along with 17 million deaths—again, almost 65%. During the same period, 80% of all deaths (52 million) will be caused by ncds.
