Penyakit tidak berjangkit (NCD) dan obesiti kini adalah ancaman utama kesihatan rakyat Malaysia dan perkembangan itu membimbangkan kerajaan.
Menteri Kesihatan Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai berkata penyakit ini sebenarnya boleh dicegah sekiranya orang ramai memberi komitmen dan berdisiplin untuk mengamalkan gaya hidup sihat.
NCD adalah penyakit seperti kencing manis, darah tinggi, kardiovaskular dan kolesterol tinggi.

PUTRAJAYA 3 Nov. – Keputusan awal Survei Kesihatan dan Morbiditi Kebangsaan (NHMS) 2011 menunjukkan kira-kira tiga juta rakyat Malaysia kini menghidap diabetes.
Ketua Pengarah Kesihatan, Datuk Seri Dr Hassan Abdul Rahman berkata, jumlah itu amat membimbangkan berbanding 1.5 juta ketika kali terakhir survei dijalankan pada 2006.
“Lebih membimbangkan kira-kira dua juta individu dewasa yang mempunyai kandungan gula dalam darah yang tinggi, masih belum diperiksa doktor,” katanya dalam satu kenyataan, di sini hari ini.
Beliau berkata, survei juga menunjukkan masih ramai rakyat negara ini yang belum melakukan ujian saringan kesihatan secara tetap dan berkala.
Perlu diketahui bahawa majoriti individu dengan diabetes tidak mengalami sebarang gejala, kadang kala sehingga tujuh ke 10 tahun dari penyakit mula terjadi, katanya.
Justeru, Dr Hasan menyarankan semua rakyat yang berumur 30 tahun dan ke atas menjalani ujian saringan faktor risiko penyakit tidak berjangkit (NCD) setiap tahun. – Bernama
