A new study published today in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Network Open finds that an estimated 1 in 5 deaths among adults aged 20–49 years is due to excessive alcohol use.
Researchers from CDC and the Canadian Institute for Substance Use Research analyzed average annual deaths during 2015–2019 from the Alcohol-Related Disease Impact (ARDI) application and total deaths from the National Vital Statistics System. Key study findings include:
|
- Excessive alcohol use accounted for more than 140,000 deaths per year in the United States, which was 5% of all deaths.
- An estimated 1 in 8 total deaths among adults aged 20–64 years were due to excessive alcohol use, including 1 in 5 deaths among those aged 20–49 years.
- Among adults aged 20–64, the percentage of total deaths due to excessive alcohol use varied by state, ranging from about 9% in Mississippi to nearly 22% in New Mexico.
- The leading causes of deaths from excessive drinking were alcoholic liver disease, other poisonings (which refers to deaths involving another substance in addition to a high blood alcohol concentration), and motor vehicle traffic crashes.
- State and communities can reduce the number of premature deaths from excessive alcohol use using evidence-based strategies that increase the price and decrease the availability of alcohol. Examples include increasing alcohol taxes and regulating the number of places that sell alcohol in communities.
