Study: Alcohol kills as many as tobacco   

Alcohol abuse kills as many people around the world as tobacco and high blood pressure, according to a new study by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta. Researchers charge that popular alcohol control measures, such as school-based abstinence programs, have proven ineffective. Figures from the World Health Organization, Switzerland, suggest alcohol abuse is responsible for roughly 1.8 million deaths annually worldwide.
