>That year, not some point in their lives.
What could be possibly so special about this year that you're so adamant to talk about it?
Also, nice website, definitely not partisan.
- InitialLastName 5y ago> That year > This year Your other points aside (I agree, they should probably at least include some citations to their statistics), this article is from 2015, so I don't think anyone is making it about 2020/covid other than you.
- rkk3 5y agoI cited the article. The initial refutation was not even the date (covid) but a baseless claim that the statistic was at some point in there lives.
- InitialLastName 5y agoI understood and was pointing that out (given that GP appeared to be insinuating things about 2020, but to be clear the list of one-sided talking points you posted puts no effort into citing sources for its "facts", so the technicalities of the 12% number (what qualifies as abuse, for how long, etc) are left for the reader to interpret.
- michaelmrose 5y agoI got 12% and 1 in 12 and the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions-III survey which IS your entire life mixed up in my head and was arguing that point not about 2020 specifically.
- rkk3 5y agoFrom 2015. If you don't like that source Here is the NIH [1] in 2019 saying 5.3% have AUD, slightly lower stat but it is including 12 year olds. I consume Alcohol and accept the health risks, but it is a hell of a drug and highly addictive. 1. https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/brochures-and-fact-sheets/alcohol-facts-and-statistics https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/brochures-and-fact-sh...
