The data originate in official statistics & the Russian longitudinal monitoring survey (RLMS). The RLMS original data were corrected by weighing it up. Following features of alcohol consumption have been ascertained as outstanding: high level of per capita alcohol consumption accompanied by its intensive growth. Composition of consumption is changing with regard to both strong & weak drinks. Alcohol consumers tend to increasingly differentiate by amount of consumption, & there is a steady & marked increase of excessive alcohol consumers. Adapted from the source document.
