What the Data Shows

Afghanistan’s premature mortality risk from major noncommunicable diseases was 32.7% in 2021. The indicator measures the probability of dying between ages 30 and 70 from cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes or chronic respiratory disease. The value is a risk measure rather than a share of all deaths. It indicates a substantial burden during prime adult years.
