Helping the Helpers to Help

Oystein Bakke @FORUT_No at #gapc2024 talking about WHO terminology "harmful use of alcohol" which resulted from industy pressure. Frankly, based on alcohol epidemiology should we be talking about "harms from alcohol use" or "alcohol harms" in alcohol policy debates? 🤔 I think so
