According to the Global Burden of Disease project (based on a group of mortality-related indicators), the World Health Organization states that alcohol is a major cause of high mortality in the world, contributing to 1.8 million deaths per year. In 2018, according to WHO data, about 4.2 million people in the European region were diagnosed with cancer (excluding nonmelanoma skin cancer), with 4.3% of cases linked to alcohol consumption. So around 180,000 cancer cases (70,000 among women and more than 110,000 among men) were associated with alcohol consumption, resulting in nearly 92,000 cancerrelated deaths.
