Abstract

•COVID-19 crisis highlights how Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) exacerbate inequalities for vulnerable populations.•Ageing populations, growing incomes, and behavioural risk factors contribute to premature NCD-related deaths.•NCDs disproportionately affect low-income countries, where they are the leading cause of death.•Health systems in low-income countries are focused on curative and epidemiological care.•Addressing NCDs and their risk factors could enhance resilience for future pandemics in low-income settings..
