Alcohol Warning Labels

[tonyP]

The current Bangkok Post voting poll, shows that 62% of 1,800 voters are in favour of health warning labels being attached to alcoholic beverages.

I doubt the general TF sentiment would agree - but let's find out!

who cares!

smokers just keep producing and working harder... as long as they want to

label? just a label... they can choose to not look at it...

i speak from my experience (i see the others do that)

>>> well, same for drinkers...i suppose

if the warning labels are the same as UK and advise how many units a drink contains (and what a 'unit' is) along with advisory details on recommended number of units per week. It's amazing how many people do not know this sort of info or how much they should, not can, drink...

1)i knew how many units a week i should drink

2)i knew how many units (roughly) is in each beer i drink

3)i knew how many units i usually drink each week

I agree but how will drunk people be able to focus and read the labels???

And will the warning be about ones liver or safe sex?

Interesting concept - warning labels could be for social hazards rather than health hazards - suggestions might include;

i) Last beer - you have to work tomorrow!

ii) Don't do it! Go home to your wife!

iii) Don't eat the bar nuts!

iv) You know you won't stop at one tequila!
