The CNCDs and the NTDs: Blurring the Lines Dividing Noncommunicable and Communicable Chronic Diseases

World Health Organizations are finding statistics that deaths from choric noncommunicable diseases are now more than infectious diseases. Cancers are one of the greatest causes of the deaths. CNCDs account for sixty percent of the deaths worldwide. Form that sixty percent; eighty percent of those deaths come from houses with low or medium income. The factors of the diseases in the countries are all the same, more tobacco use, less exercise, and eating fast food too much. CNCDs are diseases that affect individuals over a period of time and which there are no know causative agents that transmitted from one affected individual to another.

This was a good summary because it was very informative, very to the point, and it had a good hook.
The summary could have been better if it flowed better and if there was a little more from the article.
I learned, from reading this article and the summary that CNCDs are diseases or conditions that affect individuals over a long period of time.
