Call for diseased livers to appear on beer bottles

PICTURES showing diseased livers should be put on bottles of alcohol to warn people of the dangers of binge drinking, doctors have said.

Medics attending the British Medical Association’s (BMA’s) annual conference in Edinburgh called for graphic images, similar to those appearing on cigarette packs at the end of the year, to be put on alcohol.

The shock images showing the consequences of heavy drinking should also appear on posters in bars and pubs, they said.
