Rubbish. At least 30% of the world population consume alcohol on a regular basis. If what you had posted was true, then the world would have been filled with brain-dead zombies.
Without a measure drinks a maximum of 5% of the population of the entire planet who do not see the meaning of life and destroy themselves constantly with alcohol to such an extent that they can not do anything.
Alcohol addicts comprise less than 1% of the total population, even in countries like Ukraine and Russia where the prevalence is the highest. And the majority of these people are well past their prime, mostly in their 50s or 60s.
