Ford Vox, MD, works in and around Boston treating people with traumatic brain injuries, and his blog post over at The Atlantic is a stunner. Noting that The Daily Beast just named Boston the booziest city in America, he describes some of his injured patients. He estimates that alcohol is tied to about 75% of the brain injury cases he sees that are serious enough to land people in brain-rehab hospital. He makes a point of saying that many of these people showed no signs of alcohol-related problems until they had the booze-related accident, fall, or bar fight that changed their lives. So he says:
"So when I see some media outfit has named Boston America's Drunkest City, I think that sounds right. I see the aftermath every day."
Chilling. But is it worse in Boston/New England than elsewhere?
