Alcohol consumption decreased in Slovakia
The per capita alcohol consumption in Slovakia shows a downward trend – the pluska.sk Slovak news portal wrote on its website referring to the current statistics of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) on Tuesday.
In 2013 a Slovak citizen drank alcoholic drinks appropriate to an average of 9.9 liters of pure alcohol. This amount was about ten percent less than in 2000, when the amount was 11 liters per capita.
