Pandemic-induced alcoholism is showing no signs of decline. A new study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine has found how the alcohol consumption in the United States continues to be high even after two years of pandemic.
Dealing with the uncertainties of pandemic wasn't easy, especially when it took a heavy emotional and physical toll on people. To cope with the long and taxing period of lockdown and multiple challenges, many Americans took to alcohol consumption. No wonder, the stress and isolation of the pandemic drove many Americans towards alcohol addiction as the familiarity of every day life took a backseat. However, what's more worrisome is that even after the pandemic is over and two years have passed, the trend is showing no signs of reversing, found out the latest study.
