Alcohol Causes One In 20 Deaths Worldwide, Says WHO

[DEAD7]

Alcohol is responsible for more than 5% of all deaths worldwide, or around 3 million a year, new figures have revealed. The data, part of a report from the World Health Organization, shows that about 2.3 million of those deaths in 2016 were of men, and that almost 29% of all alcohol-caused deaths were down to injuries -- including traffic accidents and suicide. The report, which comes out every four years, reveals the continued impact of alcohol on public health around the world, and highlights that the young bear the brunt: 13.5% of deaths among people in their 20s are linked to booze, with alcohol responsible for 7.2% of premature deaths overall. It also stresses that harm from drinking is greater among poorer consumers than wealthier ones. While the proportion of deaths worldwide that have been linked to alcohol has fallen to 5.3% since 2012, when the figure was at 5.9%, experts say the findings make for sobering reading.

Speaking of which, the licensing body sent a minor in last week and the minor was served, we have been shut down for 90 days. They also hit us with over serving... My partner fired 90% of our staff.
Insurance has doubled.
I'm bracing for the fine.

So you're saying you can legislate responsibility?

Spoiler: Jokes aside
