BACKGROUND: The interaction between coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and
non-communicable diseases may increase the global burden of disease. We assessed
the association of COVID-19 with ageing and non-communicable diseases. METHODS:
We extracted data regarding non-communicable disease, particularly cardiovascular
disease, deaths, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), and healthy life
expectancy (HALE) from the Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) 2017. We obtained
data of confirmed COVID-19 cases, deaths, and tests from the Our World in Data
database as of May 28, 2020. Potential confounders of pandemic outcomes analyzed
include institutional lockdown delay, hemispheric geographical location, and
number of tourists. We compared all countries according to GBD classification and
World Bank income level. We assessed the correlation between independent
variables associated with COVID-19 caseload and mortality using Spearman's rank
correlation and adjusted mixed model analysis. FINDINGS: High-income had the
highest, and the Southeast Asia, East Asia, and Oceania region had the least
cases per million population (3050.60 vs. 63.86). Sub-saharan region has reported
the lowest number of COVID-19 mortality (1.9). Median delay to lockdown
initiation varied from one day following the first case in Latin America and
Caribbean region, to 34 days in Southeast Asia, East Asia, and Oceania. Globally,
non-communicable disease DALYs were correlated with COVID-19 cases (r?=?0.32,
p<0.001) and deaths (r?=?0.37, p<0.001). HALE correlated with COVID-19 cases
(r?=?0.63, p<0.001) and deaths (r?=?0.61, p<0.001). HALE was independently
associated with COVID-19 case rate and the number of tourists was associated with
COVID-19 mortality in the adjusted model. INTERPRETATION: Preventive measures
against COVID-19 should protect the public from the dual burden of communicable
and non-communicable diseases, particularly in the elderly. In addition to active
COVID-19 surveillance, policymakers should utilize this evidence as a guide for
prevention and coordination of health services. This model is timely, as many
countries have begun to reduce social isolation.
