A SURGE in deaths blamed on booze is an “acute crisis” requiring urgent action, experts warn. Death rates linked solely to alcohol increased by a fifth in England in 2020, rising by a further 13.5 per cent between 2020 and 2022. Around 3,911 more people died because of booze in that two-year period than would have been the case if pre-pandemic trends had continued, scientists at University College London and the University of Sheffield estimate.

FOR months, Gary Buesnel was back and forth to see doctors, complaining of stomach aches and pains. Yet repeatedly, medics told the 59-year-old he was "fine" - putting his symptoms down to a hernia, and gallstones. Days after Gary was finally referred to hospital for scans and tests, he was told the true cause of his stomach pain - and 10 weeks later he died.
