Alcohol-use disorders are more common in high-income countries. Any progress on this front or is just flu like diseases they think is the big threat to society Close the bars and off licences now ban all alcohol I mean its about saving lives :rolleyes:

enno99 wrote: » In March, the New York Times published a bombshell report on alarming ties between the alcohol industry and the National Institutes of Health. Specifically, five alcohol companies helped fund — and potentially shaped the design of — a 7,800-person randomized controlled trial overseen by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, a center at the NIH. The trial is supposed to answer the long-simmering question of whether moderate drinking truly reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease.https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2018/3/21/17139036/health-effects-alcohol-moderate-drinking-nih This might help explain it

Bonus question (because I know you'll try to go down that rabbit hole): What's the difference between an infectious illness that's been around for a long time, and a new infectious illness?

Masks, social distancing, hand-washing, lockdown, etc obviously have an impact on any infectious illness that spreads with close contact. A newer more virulent/infectious disease is more likely to spread than an existing illness (which has vaccines, etc), but both will have their spread hampered to relative degrees by those measures. My friend's wife is an ICU nurse. Some individuals are literally dying angry and confused because they don't believe the virus is real, or because they think it's all a conspiracy.
