CDC suggests beer
tax lowers STD rates
ATLANTA (AP) — Cheap beer is a
leading contributor to the spread of sex
ually transmitted diseases, according to
a government report that says raising the
tax on a six-pack by 20 cents could re
duce gonorrhea by up to 9 percent.
The Centers for Disease Control
(CDC') and Prevention study, released
Thursday, compared changes in gonor
rhea rates to
changes in alcohol
policy in all states
from 1981 to
1995. In years fol
lowing beer tax
increases, gonor
rhea rates usually
dropped among
young people.

Beer industry lobbyists, however,
said recent statistics show young people
are already drinking more responsibly,
thanks in part to efforts by brewers.

health economist with the Centers
for Disease Control
“Alcohol has been linked to risky
sexual behavior among youth. It in
fluences a person's judgment and
they are more likely to have sex
without a condom, with multiple
partners or w ith high-risk partners,”
said Harrell Cheson, a health econo-
tance of educating
young people
about how to make
responsible choices
once they’re old
enough and they
put a lot of money
and effort into
those programs.”
Gonorrhea, one
of the most com
mon venereal dis
eases. was exam-
ined by the CDC
because long-term statistics are avail
able and the disease is more evenly
spread among states.
The CDC analyzed the drops in gon
orrhea rates following different tax in
creases and came up with the estimate that
20-cent increase per six-pack w ould lead
to a 9 percent drop in gonorrhea rates.
