Liquor association maintains that hospital trauma admissions likely dropped because people were at home under curfew rather than being out

An association representing major alcohol industry players has poked holes in a peer-reviewed study that found the government’s periodic bans on alcohol sales during the Covid-19 pandemic were associated with a significant reduction in deaths from non-natural causes.

Citing recent research and a critique by independent data expert Ian McGorian and Prof Mike Murray from the University of KwaZulu-Natal’s School of Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science — which was not funded by the alcohol industry — Salba maintains trauma admissions likely dropped because people were at home under curfew rather than being out.

The government’s periodic bans on alcohol sales, intended to reduce the alcohol-related trauma load on hospitals and free up desperately needed resources for Covid-19 patients, have left the liquor industry reeling. On Sunday, President Cyril Ramaphosa extended the recent ban imposed two weeks ago by another 14 days.

More importantly, why would a supposedly reputable newspaper engage with such clearly contrived drivel without some sort of critical assessment?

Weak. What a pathetic misinformation attempt. Either that or yr consultants are riding you. The McGorian/PANDA study never made it through peer-review block– *still* not been published. And a cursory scan of Moultrie et al shows that they deal with all the relevant issues.
