The industry argues that the WHO’s conclusions are based on flawed methodologies and lack sufficient scientific evidence. The industry asserts that its products are generally safe and contribute positively to public health. They are asserting a desire to engage in a dialogue with the WHO regarding the ongoing debate surrounding alcohol’s effects and to present data suggesting potential benefits.
