Responding to NHS Alcohol Statistics Compendium, UK
Dienstag 26. Mai 2009 von htm
Responding to the figures contained in Statistics on Alcohol: England 2009, Professor Ian Gilmore, President of the Royal College of Physicians said: „The figures released today reflect the contradictions that characterise Britain’s relationship to drink. It is a welcome development that more people, on average, are drinking within the recommended limits. But this contrasts with fact that nearly half of all adults drink above the safe daily limits at least once a week, often above twice these levels. This paradox underlines the difficulties in understanding and seeking to change the drinking culture in the UK, because we are dealing with a heterogeneous population drinking in different patterns and for different reasons. Policies may need to reflect that diversity. (Source: Medical News Today, 5/25/09)
