Why is it important?

The pattern of disease in a developing country, such as Sudan, is changing from communicable to non-communicable diseases. Healthcare stakeholders need to know this new trend and respond accordingly.

Non-communicable diseases will soon predominate infectious disease in our community. Much work is needed to deal with the new situation.
