Aswellasthemainstaysofwork,family,sport,TV,movies,andpartners,therearesomesubjectsthatactuallyoughttobediscussedwhenfriendsaretogether.
Chiefamongtheseisorgandonation.

PubsandPublicHealthBeforebuyingthefirstdrink,abriefdiversion:itwouldbeirresponsibleforanarticleaboutthephilosophyofpub-goingnottohaveahealthwarningattachedtoit.
So,asimpliedbytheprecedingparagraphs:drinkingalcoholcanharmyourhealth.
However,althoughdrink-ingalcoholcanclearlybeharmful,it'snowherenearasriskyassomedoctorsandscarestoriesinnewspapersclaim.
Infact,manyalcoholhealthwarningsshouldhavelogicwarningsattached.
Forexample,whentheBsafe^weeklyalcohollimitformenwasloweredtofourteenunitsinlinewiththefemalelimit(UKDepartmentofHealth2016)theChiefMedicalOfficerarguedasfollows:Ifyoutake1,000women,110willgetbreastcancerwithoutdrinking.

)Thelessonfromboththeseexamplesisthatit'sriskytotalkabouttherisksofalcoholwithoutgivingabaselinestatisticfortheunderlyingrateofmortality,evenifitdoesmakesensetokeeptrackofhowmanyunitsyou'vedrunkonanightout(seenextsection).

(Interestingly,thedefinitionofbingingprovidedonDrinkaware'swebsitestatesthatitiseightunitsformenandsixforwomen,theolderdefinition[Drinkaware2018].
ThismayberelatedtothefactthatDrinkawareisfundedbythealcoholindustry,whichhasledtomuchcriticismofPublicHealthEngland'spartnershipwiththecharity[Gilmore,Bauld,andBritton2018].
)Aswellasalcoholconsumptionguidelines,thereareotherpublichealthstrategiestoprotectthepublicfromtheharmfuleffectsofalcohol.
AfteraprotractedlegalbattleagainsttheScottishWhiskyAssociation,Scotlandrecentlybecamethefirstcountryintheworldtointro-duceaminimumunitpriceforalcohol(BBC2018).
