Each year, approximately 5,000 people under age 21 die as a result of underage drinking; this includes about 1,900 deaths from motor vehicle crashes, 1,600 as a result of homicides, 300 from suicide, and hundreds from other injuries such as falls, burns, and drownings.
  • Many aspects of alcohol's health effects have not been studied, including various systems of the body that include the immune system, gall bladder function, and arthritis; thus the importance of supporting alcohol research funding.
