Is it true that there is a dramatic decrease in the number of diagnoses of noninfectious diseases?
No. Evidence directly refutes the claim that noninfectious disease diagnoses are dramatically decreasing, with multiple large-scale epidemiological studies demonstrating rising or increasing burdens of noncommunicable diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and endocrine disorders globally.
