In Europe every year alcohol is the responsable for the death of 195. 000 people The effects of alcohol abuse are: • • • ROAD CRASHES CHIRRHOSIS NERVOUS DISEASES DEPRESSION In worst way CANCER In Europe the 25% of males teenagers and the 10% of female teenagers die for the abuse of alcohol.
In Italy people start drinking alcohol at the age of 11/15, before than in any other European countries. In Milan 80. 000 teanagers drink alcoholic drinks In Italian culture the consumption of alcohol in a moderate way has always been considered common during meals. In last years a new type of consumption of alcohol was recorded: teenagers drink more alcoholic drinks, particularly cocktails at the weekend. They drink in the public parks or they buy bottles before going to the disco and abused of them. This modality of consumption is the first cause of young people’s road crashes.
In Italy 19, 5% of the teenagers aged between 11 and 15 say that they have drunk alcoholic drinks even if is not legal to buy alcoholic drinks for people that are less than 16 years old. It is also worrying the increase of consumption of alcoholic drinks between teenagers over 14 years old. The 70 % of them drink alcohol before, during and after the disco, normally at the every weekend !! New figures from ISTAT say that the percentage of “baby drinker” is doubled between 1994 and 2008 A new type of behaviour among teenagers is the Binge drinking That is very dangerous for them and for the other people’s health
In the past this expression identified people that drank everytimes until the intoxication. Now teenagers drink to be drunk: this is the new Binge Drinking. The teenagers prefer to drink in group than lonely. The Binge drinking was born in the USA. In American colleges the first to drink were students and athletes. In Italy the figures abuot it are sufficient to make the bell ring : ESPAD Report said that in 2000, 13% of the students of high schools have tried Binge Drinking.
Road crashes are the first cause of young people’s death. In Italy 30%-50% of mortality of road crashes is caused by alcohol. DRINK ALCOHOL ALSO IN A LIMITED QUANTITY CAN BE DANGEROUS FOR YOU AND OTHER PEOPLE. IN ITALY ALCOHOLEMIC LIMIT FOR DRIVERS IS 0. 5 mg/L In Milan the Local Medical Commission has given us the following figures: • 2007 medical control for people who have had the driving licence retired FOR ALCOHOL = 3620 FOR DRUG = 191 • 2008 medical control for people who have had the driving licence retired FOR ALCOHOL = 3435 FOR DRUG = 230
Road Crashes The Death rate for road accidents due to binge drinking is very high for drivers aged between 21 -24 The high percentage of accident on Fridays and Saturdays is really worrying According to recent studies by ISTAT road crashes usually happen after beeing in discos or places where the teenagers dance and involve both males and females Crashes are due to an alterated psyco-physical condition and 70, 1% of the road crashes was caused by the alcohol abuse in 2006. In the period between 1/1/07 and 1/1/08 the Road Police Stradale have given 31. 521 fines for binge drinking of which 5. 750 on motorways and 25. 771 on state, regional and county roads 76 driving licences were withdrawn in Parabiago in 2008, 60 out of 76 were due to alcohol abuse. Three crashes happened and they were due to alcohol abuse.
