...availability of affordable basic technologies and essential medicines required to treat major NCDs...

Jeg tror at dette antagelig betyr Ikke smittsomme sykdommer, men i så fall, bruker man en forkortelse også på norsk?

Explanation:
Det ser ut som NCD også brukes på norsk. Søk på ("ikke-smittsomme sykdommer" "NCD") i Google, så ser du mange gode referanser.

IS (ikke-smittsomme sykdommer)


Explanation:
Kanskje dette kan være til hjelp:
Jeg ser blant annet at Helsedirektoratet bruker IS-numre i sine rapporter om ikke-smittsomme sykdommer (f.eks. IS-1574), mens andre bruker den engelske forkortelsen NCD, slik som i NCD-alliansen, osv.

neutral  Joachim Stene: Tror ikke IS står for ikke-smittsom, fordi det også brukes i rapporter som ikke har noe med sykdommer å gjøre. Har dessverre ikke funnet ut hva det står for, så jeg kan selvfølgelig ta feil.
