It proposes a framework for the analysis of the macroeconomic impact of noncommunicable diseases (NCD) and applies the methodology to the context of Senegal. Total losses associated with non-communicable diseases over the period 2015-2035 are projected to amount to US$ 23 billion.application/pdfenMATHEMATICAL MODELSTOBACCO CONTROLHEALTH ECONOMICSMORBIDITYNON-COMMUNICABLE DISEASESMACROECONOMICSSENEGALSOUTH OF SAHARAJournal Article (peer-reviewed)
