   Alcohol: Key facts   
      
      
       The harmful use of alcohol is a causal factor in more than 200   
   disease and injury conditions.   
      
       Worldwide, 3 million deaths every year result from harmful use of   
   alcohol. This represents 5.3% of all deaths.   
      
       Overall, 5.1% of the global burden of disease and injury is   
   attributable to alcohol, as measured in disability-adjusted life years   
   (DALYs).   
      
       Beyond health consequences, the harmful use of alcohol brings   
   significant social and economic losses to individuals and society at   
   large.   
      
       Alcohol consumption causes death and disability relatively early   
   in life. In people aged 20-39 years, approximately 13.5% of total   
   deaths are attributable to alcohol.   
      
       There is a causal relationship between harmful use of alcohol and   
   a range of mental and behavioural disorders, other noncommunicable   
   conditions and injuries.
