also might enter following a similar trend in the us we spoke earlier to dr james gill a lecturer at warwick medical school about the issue. but let's be very very clear we have seen a rise to cross the border around holy it's about one quarter of all people who drink alcohol have increased their consumption and some of those numbers have been staggering if we look at the people who drink over 50 units a week that's more not 5 bottles of wine in the week that's gone up from 1500000 people before lock down to now over 2500000 people we sort 10 percent rise in acute intoxication deaths that was 352 people these deaths are avoidable they're not nearly figures that these unfortunate people that have lost their lives due to fight to an alcohol and yes we have seen the highest levels since we started recording these in 2001 the effect of the pandemic probably isn't visible in these numbers yet and it's expected that will be further consequences coming down the line so we need to act now to give people the support they need to overcome these alcohol as a coping mechanism. for us tech company has be
