    The World Health Organization (WHO) released a new report on alcohol Monday, and the results are not pretty. Worldwide, 3.3 million deaths in 2012 were due to alcohol, the familiar drug that commonly raises the risk of more than 200 diseases, including cancer and liver cirrhosis. Yet the percentage was significantly higher among men than women: 7.6 percent of men’s deaths were alcohol-related compared to 4.0 percent of women’s deaths.
