Abstract

There is good evidence that episodes of heavy alcohol consumption on single occasions (“binge drinking”) and not simply the total average consumption, play a key role in determining alcohol-related harm in a population.1-3 In New Zealand (NZ), the role of hazardous alcohol consumption in contributing a large morbidity and mortality burden is also well documented.2 4-8 To add to the understanding of the NZ situation, we report here on the largest NZ survey to date on alcohol usage.
