Without wishing to be controversial, when one is a minister in charge of health and a doctor and one knows the weight of the "drug industry" he is, as in Reichshoffen, charges that should be avoided. Then this antigen hygienist on the perfect similarity "in terms of public health" of wine, vodka, etc. All have in common the "alcohol molecule". We have heard this a hundred times, among people who, it seems, do not know the difference between a Klaxon concert on a bottling day and the second Allegretto movement of the seventh symphony of Beethoven. All this is noise ... What more to say to someone who does not understand the pleasure, the enjoyment of a good wine, the happiness of sharing, the truth of gastronomy. Really did it happen to Agnès Buzyn? Is the ministry canteen so infective that it forgets the taste for good things?
Do not touch my greedy, do not touch my friend, do not touch my picrate! !
All professionals, in whatever industry, legitimately defend their business. Miners in the coal burned, asbestos workers too, but at what cost? But is it (apart from a humanist aspect of the fate of those whom any change will generate) the right criterion? In their time, horse-drawn cars were a pleasure to live in, but brothels too (especially for men) and therefore enjoyment since it evokes this term!
Agnès Buzyn, and I do not appreciate it for her vaccination position, clearly stated that she drank alcoholic beverages from time to time in a friendly, festive way, this is not excessive or prohibition, than to advise against alcohol to pregnant women (such as tobacco), as to children. But the first and most persistent educations remain the parents' model: you drink; I drink ; you are sober, I am abstinent; you only drink moderately, I might drink moderately too, unless alcohol takes hold of the physiologically immature child's brain and passes it, culturally (mostly by friends) to the unmoderated stage, then dependent.
I did not have to deal with dependent drinkers, but addicted to tobacco: yes! And their story is always the same: The first cigarette to do as friends, integrate into the group, and the age advancing the group breaks up, but tobacco remains with the addiction that has been established with the impossibility of win. Not with three packs a day, but already with 3 cigarettes, which is little, very little! and for alcohol it's the same process. But could this character apply to children this speech ?: " What more can I say to someone who does not understand the pleasure, the enjoyment of a good wine, the happiness of sharing, the truth of gastronomy. »
I asked this question previously, to which no one answered: From what age should a child begin to drink? for the enjoyment of a good wine, the pleasure of sharing while the nostrils of a child make it throw back to the scent of a pinard, the scent of a cibiche !: it stinks!
But everyone has to assume his choices, of course!
