Detailed explanation-1: -Diabetes is one of the four major types of noncommunicable diseases (cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer and chronic respiratory diseases). It is a chronic condition that occurs when the body either does not produce enough insulin or cannot effectively use the insulin it does produce.

Detailed explanation-2: -Some people who don’t know much about type 1 or type 2 diabetes might question whether it’s transferrable from person-to-person through sexual contact, saliva, or blood. Science has confirmed that diabetes is a non-communicable disease, so it’s not contagious-nor is a diagnosis your fault.

Detailed explanation-3: -Non-infectious diseases are not caused by pathogens and therefore cannot be spread from one person to another. Instead, non-infectious diseases are caused by factors such as genetics, malnutrition, environment and lifestyle. Examples of non-infectious diseases include cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and epilepsy.
