According to the British "Daily Mail" reported in June 16, WHO has newly released the Global Action Plan on Alcohol, hoping to raise the awareness of countries on alcohol-related hazards.
According to the draft action plan, it is necessary to give "proper attention" to "preventing children, pregnant women and women of childbearing age from drinking". The draft warns that alcoholic beverages will lead to increased diseases, poor mental health, violence, decreased work efficiency and deterioration of interpersonal relationships.
Twitter users expressed their feelings:
A Twitter user wrote angrily: "WHO has put forward a proposal to ban women of childbearing age from drinking alcohol". Do we only respect women's fertility? Drinking alcohol will reduce men's sperm count and testosterone level, so where is the call for men of childbearing age to give up drinking? "
Another user wrote: "Dear WHO, I don't think Women of Childbearing Age will attach importance to your proposal. Please stop making these hypocritical suggestions! "
The above content refers to the observer-WHO advises women of childbearing age to ban alcohol, and the Alcohol Association approves gender discrimination.
