Global health policy against dangers from alcohol

The article summarizes scientifically based recommendations of the World Health Organization on the problem of the impressively growing dangers of alcohol, especially for emerging markets. To ensure the reliability of the results, we carried out a predictive extrapolation based on the multifactorial analysis methodology of economic mechanisms. Accordingly, as forecasts show, the use of economic mechanisms to curb alcohol consumption can significantly reduce alcohol consumption, intoxication, illness and addiction. The Global alcohol action plan offers adequate measures for the most difficult areas of the anti-alcohol front. The Global alcohol action plan and other political-economic mechanisms aim for effective healthcare policy by leadership measures, drinking and driving and pricing policies, reduction of intoxication and informally produced products. Countries with a significant increase in alcohol consumption are characterized by a low standard of living without effective pricing, taxes and legal regulations on alcohol.
