Liver cancer cases worldwide are projected to double by 2050, with obesity-related liver cancers identified as the fastest-growing cause of the disease. However, more than half of these cases could be prevented through lifestyle changes and vaccination, according to recent studies. In Kenya, the government is addressing alcohol consumption as a contributing factor to the liver cancer crisis. Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has supported a proposal by the National Authority for the Campaign Against Alcohol and Drug Abuse (NACADA) to raise the legal drinking age from 18 to 21, aiming to curb substance abuse among youth. This move has sparked debate, with some critics concerned about its impact on sports and the economy. Meanwhile, in the UK, alcohol consumption has decreased by 22% over the past 20 years, leading to the closure of a quarter of pubs, with rural communities mobilizing to save local establishments.
