2. Noncommunicable Diseases (NCDs)
• Heart diseases and
strokes

diseases
36M deaths each year due to NCDs…
Office of the WHO Representative in the Philippines
3. Global Burden of Cancer
• Cancer is the world’s second biggest killer after cardiovascular
diseases.
• It kills around 8.2 million people globally each year. 65% (5.3
million) of the cancer deaths occurred in les developed regions,
with huge implications on human suffering, health systems, health
budgets, and efforts to reduce poverty.
Office of the WHO Representative in the Philippines
4. Viral Hepatitis
• Viral hepatitis is a group of infectious diseases that affects
hundreds of millions of people worldwide.
• Five distinct hepatitis viruses have been identified: A, B, C, D
and E.
• Hepatitis B and C are particularly prevalent.
• Untreated chronic hepatitis B and C infection can result in
liver cirrhosis and liver cancer.
• An estimated 57% of cases of liver cirrhosis and 78% of
cases of primary liver cancer result from HBV or HCV
infection.
Office of the WHO Representative in the Philippines
5. Global Burden of hepatitis B
(HBV) and hepatitis C (HCV)
• 500 million chronically infected
– 350 million HBV
– 150-170 million HCV
• 1 million deaths per year
– 600,000 HBV
– 350,000 HCV
• 57% of cirrhosis
– 30% HBV
– 27% HCV
• 78% of Hepatocellular carcinoma
– 53% HBV
– 25% HCV
7. Chronic Hepatitis B Infection
• Children less than 6 years of age who become infected with the
hepatitis B virus are the most likely to develop chronic
infections.
• 80–90% of infants infected during the first year of life develop
chronic infections.
• 30–50%% of children infected before the age of 6 years
develop chronic infections.
• In adults: <5% of otherwise healthy adults who are infected will
develop chronic infection;
• 15–25% of adults who become chronically infected during
childhood die from hepatitis B-related liver cancer or cirrhosis.
Office of the WHO Representative in the Philippines
8. Hepatitis B and C in Philippines
• Estimated 7.3 M (16.7% of adult population) chronically
infected with BHV
• Around 2.3% or 1 M Filipinos may be infected with HCV

9. Why should we be concerned about viral
hepatitis?
• Millions of people are living with viral hepatitis and millions more are at
risk.
• Most people who were infected long ago with HBV or HCV are
unaware of their chronic infection. They are at high risk of developing
severe chronic liver disease and can unknowingly transmit the infection
to other people.
• Viral hepatitis places a heavy burden on the health care system
because of the costs of treatment of liver failure and chronic liver
disease.
• Some groups are at more risk of contracting viral hepatitis than others.

To reduce the preventable and
avoidable burden of morbidity,
mortality and disability due to
NCDs by means of multisectoral
collaboration and cooperation at
national, regional and global levels
26. WHO Framework Convention on
Tobacco Control (FCTC)
Quitting tobacco is the best way
to reduce cancer. To help make
this happen, WHO develops and
helps implement powerful
tobacco controls.
Office of the WHO Representative in the Philippines
27. WHO Global Strategy on Diet, Physical
Activity and Health
• Eating well and staying active
are keys to leading healthier lives
and eliminating the risks of
chronic conditions like cancer.
• WHO works with countries to
craft straightforward approaches
to promote healthy diets and
physical activity.
Office of the WHO Representative in the Philippines
28. Global Strategy on Harmful Use of
Alcohol
•WHO works with governments to introduce policies that reduce
the negative health consequences of hazardous and harmful
alcohol use, identify risky drinking patterns and improve public
health.
• In 2005, the World Health Assembly adopted a resolution on
“public health problems caused by harmful use of alcohol,”
urging countries to develop, implement and evaluate effective
strategies to reduce the health and social problems associated
with alcohol.
Office of the WHO Representative in the Philippines
29. Immunization Drives Against
Hepatitis B
• WHO promotes the introduction of
hepatitis B vaccine in many poor countries.

adulthood from liver cancer and cirrhosis.

Approximately 1 000 000 people die each year (~2.7% of all deaths) from causes related to viral hepatitis, most commonly liver disease, including liver cancer.
An estimated 57% of cases of liver cirrhosis and 78% of cases of primary liver cancer
According to the Global Burden of Disease estimates, hepatitis B and hepatitis C together caused 1.4 million deaths in 2010, including deaths from acute infection, liver cancer and cirrhosis.
Approximately 1 000 000 people die each year (~2.7% of all deaths) from causes related to viral hepatitis, most commonly liver disease, including liver cancer.

The likelihood that infection with the hepatitis B virus becomes chronic depends upon the age at which a person becomes infected.
Children less than 6 years of age who become infected with the hepatitis B virus are the most likely to develop chronic infections:
80–90% of infants infected during the first year of life develop chronic infections;
30–50%% of children infected before the age of 6 years develop chronic infections.
In adults:
<5% of otherwise healthy adults who are infected will develop chronic infection;
15–25% of adults who become chronically infected during childhood die from hepatitis B-related liver cancer or cirrhosis.
Liver cancer is largely a problem of the less developed regions where 83% (50% in China alone) of the estimated 782,000 new cancer cases worldwide occurred in 2012. It is the fifth most common cancer in men (554,000 cases, 7.5% of the total) and the ninth in women (228,000 cases, 3.4%).
In men, the regions of high incidence are Eastern and South-Eastern Asia (ASRs 31.9 and 22.2 respectively). In women, the rates are generally much lower, the highest being in Eastern Asia and Western Africa (10.2 and 8.1 respectively).
Liver cancer estimated to be responsible for nearly 746,000 deaths in 2012 (9.1% of the total).
The prognosis for liver cancer is very poor (overall ratio of mortality to incidence of 0.95), and as such the geographical patterns in incidence and mortality are similar.
Liver cancer is the 6th most common cancer in 2012, and third most common cause of death from cancer worldwide in both sexes.
Among men, liver cancer is the 5th most common cancer, and second most common cause of death from cancer. (5 and 2)
Among women, liver cancer is the 9th most common cancer, and sixth most common cause of death from cancer. (9 and 6)

In 2010, the World Health Assembly adopted its first resolution on viral hepatitis and called for a comprehensive approach to prevention and control, opened a new era of awareness about the magnitude of the disease and the need for urgent action on several fronts.
The World Health Organization (WHO) followed up on the resolution in 2012 by crafting a strategy that addresses four axes: awareness-raising, partnerships and resource mobilization; evidence-based policy and data for action; prevention of transmission; and screening, care and treatment.
To raise awareness about hepatitis
WHO Member States at the 58th World Health Assembly in Geneva approved a resolution on Cancer Prevention and Control which called on all Member States to develop national cancer programmes, to cover strategies on prevention, early detection, diagnosis and treatment, and palliative care.
The global cancer control strategy encouraged national governments to provide the unifying framework so actions at all levels and by all stakeholders will be mutually supportive.
It emphasized the need for multisectoral action as many cancer risk factors lie outside the health sector’s direct influence.
It pushed for integrated interventions and seeks involvement of governments and nongovernmental organizations, like health professional associations and national cancer societies.
WHO also addresses some of the main risk factors for NCDs through global action, such as the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control and the Global Strategy on Diet, Physical Activity, and Health.
WHO also addresses some of the main risk factors for cardiovascular disease through global action, such as the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control and the Global Strategy on Diet, Physical Activity, and Health.

There were 14.1 million new cancer cases, 8.2 million cancer deaths and 32.6 million people living with cancer (within 5 years of diagnosis) in 2012 worldwide. 57% (8 million) of new cancer cases, 65% (5.3 million) of the cancer deaths and 48% (15.6 million) of the 5-year prevalent cancer cases occurred in the less developed regions.
The overall age standardized cancer incidence rate is almost 25% higher in men than in women, with rates of 205 and 165 per 100,000, respectively.
