The World Health Organization says alcohol abuse is the third leading cause of death and disability in the world. There are four main causes of alcohol-related death. (29)Injury from car accidents or violence is one. Diseases like cirrhosis (肝硬化)of the liver, cancer, heart and blood system diseases are the others. The WHO report says alcohol abuse also can add to the development of 200 other diseases. A new WHO report says the harmful use of alcohol kills two and one-half million people a year. And officials say action is needed to reduce the problem. The WHO released the "Global Status Report on Alcohol and Health" last week. (30)The report shows young people are at risk. It says 320 000 people between the ages of 15 and 29 die yearly from alcohol-related causes. Shekhar Saxena is the director of the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse at the World Health Organization. He says alcohol is responsible for one-third of the deaths among young people in some parts of the world. Consumption and harmful effects of alcohol are increasing in developing countries, particularly in Africa and Asia, which have less powerful regulations and which have less health services available. (31)The WHO has a plan to reduce the harmful use of alcohol. It includes raising taxes on alcohol, reducing the number of places to buy alcohol and raising the drinking age. Officials say other measures include effective drunk driving laws and banning some alcohol advertising.
