The UN agency puts the annual cost of physical inactivity at $27.4-billion , marked by 500 million new cases of preventable, noncommunicable diseases and mental illness projected through 2030. The direct costs will predominantly come from depression, dementia and hypertension, which collectively make up about 70% of the total.
Concerns about rising obesity, poor nutrition and lack of exercise are growing as 81% of adolescents and 27% of adults fail to meet recommended physical-activity levels and health-care spending skyrockets. The report looks at the economic and health consequences of current activity levels. The WHO report hasn’t been peer reviewed, and the authors acknowledge their work was limited by uncertain data in lower- and middle-income countries where estimating costs was more difficult. In addition, Fiona Bull, head of WHO Physical Activity Unit, said that the agency is missing some globally approved indicators.
The study doesn’t say increased physical activity can totally erase the projected multiyear price tag of $302-billion. The cost of programmes and government actions to get people off their sofas also has to be taken into account.
BS. We all know what's causing the issue of sudden death, but we cannot talk about That Which Can't Be Named
