WHO Recommends Alcohol Restrictions During COVID-19

The World Health Organization recommends governments do more to restrict access to alcohol during COVID-19 lockdowns.

“Alcohol is consumed in excessive quantities (in the European Region), and leaves too many victims. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we should really ask ourselves what risks we are taking in leaving people under lockdown in their homes with a substance that is harmful both in terms of their health and the effects of their behaviour on others, including violence"

Is this a sensible recommendation, or another example of government related organizations attempting to regulate human behaviour rather than allowing us to make our own decisions? You decide...
