Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to the World Health Organization, infectious and parasitic diseases are the leading cause of death in low- and middle-income countries, accounting for approximately 43% of all deaths. This is largely due to factors such as poor sanitation, lack of access to clean water, and limited healthcare resources. While cancer and HIV/AIDS also contribute to mortality in these countries, they are not as prevalent as infectious and parasitic diseases. Malnutrition may contribute to these deaths, but it is often a consequence of the underlying infectious or parasitic disease.
