Alcohol related deaths

Through out the world, people consume alcohol. Most of them are addicted to its use and they do not mind drinking a bottle or two at same time. As the world is getting modern and the minimum age limit is lowering down from twenty one to eighteen in many countries of the world. So it is increasing the death risk level of the people. It is not only the pedestrian who is hit by the car of the drunker but it is the person by him self who after extra consumption of alcohol found death the next morning. Almost every year twenty five thousand people get killed by drinking or being a drunker. And according to one survey in 2005 only in America there were 43,443 accidental deaths by the alcohol drinkers. Now let us look at the ratio that how in different ways alcohol becomes the killer.

Of all the diseases related to the consumption of alcohol almost five percent of the death occurs each year. These are only circulatory system affected deaths.
Fifteen percent of all deaths are due to respiration problems that are caused by drinking alcohol.
Thirty percent of the deaths are attributed by alcohols when it is consumed in any form near fire or flammable materials.
Further thirty percent deaths by alcohols are due to the drowning in water or gutters.
The accidental falls are about forty percent after the consumption of the alcohol.
The ratio of suicidal deaths by alcohol is up to thirty percent.
The ratio of automobile accidents is forty five percent of the totals due to usage of alcohol.
And at the most of all sixty percent of the deaths are due to murders that were committed after drinking alcohols.
And if we consider the over all statistics so we will come across the figure of 100,000 deaths by alcohol almost every year who are killed by their father, mother, brother or sisters and relatives and friends. And the reason behind these death cases is just alcohol. This is really ridiculous.
So we can say that in every twenty five of the daily deaths one is due to the use of alcohol which makes it 2.3 percent of the deaths every year.

One of the increases in this ratio is due to the fact that more women are drinking alcohol. In Norway and United Kingdom, thirty percent of the women are addicted to alcohol where as in India five percent of the women are drinkers.

The ratio of highest death rates is found in most modern and so called civilized nations of the world. The one we all know is the USA and the other is Europe.
