YES! The American Cancer Society has listed ethanol in "Group 1: Carcinogenic to humans" and this is part of "known, tested and tried" group/highest ranking group of known carcinogens.

*****

The IARC (part of the World Health Organisation) classify "Ethanol in Alcoholic Beverages" as a Group 1 carcinogen. This leads me to suspect that's it's included for political, rather than medical, reasons.

They've 'denormalised' the smokers with the aid of junk science. Now it's the turn of those of you who enjoy a glass of wine or beer.
