Hey there,

Your question/statement states: Inherited diseases such as sickle cell anemia are noncommunicable diseases.

The key word in this statement is
\boxed{noncommunicable }. It means when a disease is long term. So, we will learn weather inherited diseases such as sickle cell anemia are (long term) diseases.

Sick cell anemia are long term. They don't just fade away in one day. You need special treatment for this disease. This would be considered noncommunicable disease.

This is a
TRUE statement.

Hope this helps.
