Improvements in Respiratory Disease Mortality in Kyrgyzstan
According to a report by the World Health Organization, progress has been made in reducing mortality from respiratory diseases in Kyrgyzstan. Talantbek Soronbaev, the Director of the National Center for Cardiology and Therapy, shared this positive news on a radio broadcast.
Soronbaev stated that the Ministry of Health, along with the WHO, has been actively working to prevent deaths from respiratory illnesses. This achievement is a result of the dedicated efforts of healthcare professionals who have focused on early disease detection, equipping medical facilities with necessary tools, and ensuring the availability of essential medications.
Despite these advancements, Soronbaev highlighted that smoking remains a significant contributor to respiratory disease mortality. He urged individuals to consider quitting this harmful habit to safeguard their health.
Statistics from the National Statistical Committee revealed a concerning trend, with 627,200 cases of respiratory diseases reported among Kyrgyzstanis by the end of 2023. This data underscores the importance of continued efforts to address respiratory health issues and promote wellness in the country.
By prioritizing prevention strategies, enhancing healthcare services, and raising awareness about the risks associated with respiratory conditions, Kyrgyzstan aims to further improve the health outcomes of its population.
