Mangaluru, April 22, 2020: A group of social workers and media groups has launched a study on the impact of Covid lockdown on alcohol dependents and excessive alcohol users.
Ecolink Recovery Online, a Mangaluru-based online therapeutic group, has initiated an opinion survey in cooperation with Global TV and News Karnataka. The survey also provides online counseling for alcohol dependents.
Ronnie Thomas, the coordinator of Recovery Online, told Matters India that Alcohol Lockdown Survey is a short term project intended to develop a support system for the suffering alcoholics who are “forced to undergo detoxification process” with the closure of wine shops throughout the country.
