        “Around the world, not enough people are active. For many people, modern life involves a lot of sitting down, whether that’s driving to work, sitting in an office all day, and sitting in front of the television in the evening. We must get the world moving”—@DrTedros #BeatNCDspic.twitter.com/R4QSmDibuM

        Let exercise be made compulsory in schools for both students and the workers, let each organization make plans for their workers to reduce inactivity. Together we can beatNCDs
