Mauritius faces health challenges that include the rising prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer, largely due to lifestyle factors such as poor diet, lack of physical activity, and smoking. The island nation has successfully managed infectious diseases like malaria and tuberculosis, but still contends with issues related to obesity and hypertension. Additionally, Mauritius is grappling with an aging population, which puts pressure on healthcare services.
