Alcohol 'could kill 210,000 in next 20 years'
Monday February 20 2012
Around 70,000 alcohol-related liver deaths 'could be avoided'
Medical experts say “210,000 people could die from alcohol abuse in next 20 years”, according to the Daily Mirror.
Several other newspapers have highlighted the estimate, based on the latest alcohol-related harm statistics released from the UK’s Office of National Statistics. These figures show that there were 6,317 alcohol-related liver deaths in 2010, slightly up from 2009. Based on this data, researchers calculated the future toll of drinking, and estimated that there could be up to 210,000 preventable alcohol-related deaths over the next 20 years.
However, the researchers’ projections varied quite widely. Their report stated that the death rate seen in coming years will depend on the effectiveness of government policies designed to tackle problem-drinking. They added that it is “within the power of the UK government to prevent the worst-case scenario of avoidable deaths”, and discussed implementing a minimum price per unit of alcohol.

I wonder why bars even have parking lots. Shouldn't it be arranged like an airport with passenger drop off and pick up.
Gotta figure that most people leaving have some level of impaired driving skills.
This could open up a new business model and create jobs.

The OP is laughable considering the fact that the British Government created Gin with the express purpose of keeping the masses from rebelling.

Re: Death to the World Health Organization
My daughters friend was run over by a truck driven by his friend in a pub's parking lot. They had just left the pub, three of them, and while the two were fooling around on the passenger side, one fell under the wheels. The driver didn't realize this and put the car in reverse and drove over top of him.
Very sad.
