Response to: The Synergism of Public Health Policies and Social Work May Reduce Mortality from Cancer, Liver Disease and Cardiovascular Disease

We appreciate the interest that emerged from our recent publication [1], 'Association between public health policies on alcohol and worldwide cancer, liver disease, and cardiovascular disease outcomes' [2]. In our research, we evidenced a strong relationship between alcohol-related public health policies (PHP) establishment and the decrease of alcohol-related health consequences over time among 169 countries, including liver disease and other significant causes of burden of disease worldwide. These associations were stronger over time, and consistent with the framework SAFER proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO).
