To investigate changes in alcohol consumption during the first months of COVID-19 pandemic Europe as well its associations with income and experiences distress related to pandemic.Cross-sectional on-line survey conducted between 24 April 22 July 2020.Twenty-one European countries.A total 31 964 adults reporting past-year drinking.Changes were measured by asking respondents about over previous month their drinking frequency, quantity they consumed incidence heavy episodic events. Individual indicators combined into an aggregated consumption-change score scaled a possible range -1 +1. Using this outcome, multi-level linear regressions tested overall drinking, taking account sampling weights baseline [Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT-C)] country residence serving random intercept. Similar models for each single indicator.The indicated average decrease -0.14 [95% confidence interval (CI) = -0.18, -0.10]. Statistically significant decreases found all countries, except Ireland (-0.08, 95% CI -0.17, 0.01) United Kingdom (+0.10, 0.03, 0.17). Decreases mainly driven reduced frequency events (-0.17, -0.20, -0.14). Declines less marked among those low- or incomes experiencing distress.On average, appears have declined Europe. Both availability increased may affected consumption, although former seems had greater impact terms immediate effects.

Abstract Issues Numerous studies have examined the impact of COVID‐19 pandemic on alcohol use changes in Europe, with concerns raised regarding increased and related harms. Approach We synthesised observational published between 1 January 2020 31 September 2021 self‐reported associated COVID‐19. Electronic databases were searched for evaluating individual data from European general clinical populations. identified 646 reports, which 56 population suitable random‐effects meta‐analyses proportional differences changes. Variations by time, sub‐region study quality assessed subsequent meta‐regressions. Additional 16 reports summarised narratively. Key Findings Compiling measuring overall use, slightly more individuals indicated a decrease than an increase their during [3.8%, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.00–7.6%]. Decreases also reported often increases drinking frequency (8.0%, CI 2.7–13.2%), quantity consumed (12.2%, 8.3–16.2%) heavy episodic (17.7%, 13.6–21.8%). Among people pre‐existing high levels/alcohol disorder, high‐level patterns appear to solidified or intensified. Implications Pandemic‐related may be pre‐pandemic levels. Increases among high‐risk users are concerning, suggesting need ongoing monitoring support relevant health‐care services. Conclusion Our findings suggest that reduced Europe it since onset pandemic. However high‐quality examining specific change mechanisms at level lacking.

The COVID-19 outbreak has forced countries to introduce severe restrictive measures contain its spread. In particular, physical distancing and restriction of movement have had important consequences on human behaviour potentially also illicit drug use supply. These changes can be associated with additional risks for users, in particular due reduced access prevention harm reduction activities. Furthermore, there been limitations the amount data about which collected restrictions. To goal this study was obtain information potential impacted by Wastewater samples were seven cities Netherlands, Belgium, Spain Italy at beginning lockdowns (March-May 2020). Using previously established validated methods, levels amphetamine (AMP), methamphetamine (METH), MDMA, benzoylecgonine (BE, main metabolite cocaine) 11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC-COOH, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)) measured compared findings from previous years. Important differences consumed drugs observed across considered countries. Whilst some substances locations, marked decreases consumption could (e.g., 50% decrease MDMA years). cases, similar or even higher years found. Changes weekly patterns observed, however these not clearly defined all locations and/or substances. Findings confirm that current situation is highly heterogeneous it remains very difficult explain predict effect present pandemic availability. However, given difficulty obtaining restrictions, wastewater analysis provide relevant local level, would hard otherwise.
