“There is solid evidence of the gambling product characteristics that are used to create the most addictive forms of gambling. "These products behave in exactly the way they are intended to, & anyone can be addicted” An important truth from GwL co-founder Liz Ritchie at this week’s World Health Assembly side event on Gambling and Public Health in Geneva.

Charities like @GambleWithLives and @gamblingharmuk do vital work supporting those affected by gambling harms. Gambling Impact Assessments will help in the fight by giving more power to push back against clusters of betting shops. But we must go further and end aim to permit.

ギャンブルによる弊害(ギャンブルによる自死含む)に関して、国際的な認識は高まっており、パブリックヘルスの問題であり、弊害を防ぎ命を救うためには、もっと力強い行動が必要であると考えられています。 個人の治癒だけでなく、社会全体の健康を取り戻し、守ることの必要を感じました。

Today, we co-convened & spoke at a side event of the 79th World Health Assembly on gambling and public health. Thank you to colleagues from Brazil, Portugal, the US, UNICEF, WHO & partners across the global health community for the opportunity to contribute. There is growing international recognition that gambling harm – including gambling suicide – is a public health issue requiring far stronger action to prevent harm & save lives.

イギリスでもギャンブル依存症による自死が社会問題になっています。 けれども自死遺族会の活動で、イギリスでは国会議員が動き出してくれ「法制ギャンブル賦課金制度」が成立したと聞いています。 日本も国会議員の先生方、政治を動かして下さい。 #ギャンブル等依存症問題啓発週間
