The MDG and the SDG really helps in the prevention of the communicable diseases. It is due to the fact that there are many goals under the MDG. They are reduction in the child mortality, improvement of the health of women and also the development of the health of the women. Then there is another point that is the combat of AIDS. Thus it can be said that there are different types of the goals under the MDG and it helps in the education and empowerment of women and children as well. So when women and children are educated they are least likely to be affected by a communicable disease as they would be more conscious about it.
