Alcohol Stocks Are Falling Today: What's Going On?
Stocks of leading alcohol companies reacted negatively to the news. Shares of major alcohol producers and distributors declined sharply Friday following a warning issued by U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy about the increased cancer risks associated with alcohol consumption.
主要酒類生產商和分銷商的股票在週五大幅下跌，此前美國首席衛生官維韋克·穆爾菲發出警告，稱飲酒增加了癌症風險。
What To Know: Murthy's advisory emphasized the need for updated health warning labels to reflect mounting evidence of alcohol's connection to cancer. These labels have not been revised since 1988. The advisory also called for reassessing recommended alcohol consumption limits, highlighting alcohol's role as the third-leading preventable cause of cancer in the United States, behind tobacco and obesity.
要點：穆爾菲的建議強調了更新健康警告標籤以反映酒精與癌症之間越來越多的證據的必要性。這些標籤自1988年以來未曾修訂。該建議還呼籲重新評估推薦的酒精消費限制，強調酒精是美國第三大可預防癌症的原因，僅次於煙草和肥胖。
Murthy's statement drew attention to alcohol's association with at least seven types of cancer, including breast, liver and colorectal cancers. He pointed out that alcohol consumption contributes to approximately 100,000 cancer cases and 20,000 deaths annually in the United States. The announcement highlighted that only 45% of American adults are aware of the cancer risks posed by alcohol.
穆爾菲的聲明引起了對酒精與至少七種癌症（包括乳腺癌、肝癌和結腸直腸癌）之間關聯的關注。他指出，酒精消費每年導致美國大約100,000例癌症病例和20,000人死亡。公告強調，只有45%的美國成年人意識到酒精帶來的癌症風險。
