A large case-control study in India reports that drinking about one standard drink a day (roughly 9 grams of alcohol) is associated with an estimated 50% higher risk of buccal mucosa cancer. The researchers also estimate that the combination of alcohol use and chewing tobacco may account for about 62% of cases nationally, with the strongest association seen among people who mainly consumed locally brewed alcoholic beverages.
Coalition politicians in Germany are calling for a two-euro increase in tobacco tax per pack to reduce consumption and generate billions in revenue. The extra funds would be used to lower VAT on medicines. Compared to countries like the UK and Australia, Germany has been lenient with the cigarette industry so far.
