Abstract
In the same month that this manuscript was prepared, newspapers had twice warned the public about the negative aspects of alcohol consumption. South African drinkers consume among the highest volumes of alcoholic beverages in the world, at approximately 50 ml ethanol per drinker per day, making alcohol abuse one of South Africa’s top ten health and social problems.
