The Japanese government's proposed
solution, the "Sake Viva!" campaign, will be
overseen by the National Tax Agency.
The campaign invites participants
to submit ideas for how to "stimulate
demand among young people" for alcohol.
.
The proposed ideas can include new services, promotional
methods, products, designs and even sales techniques
utilizing the metaverse or artificial intelligence.
According to the tax office,
applications will be
accepted until September 9.
The winner of the contest
will receive support for their
concept to be commercialized.
While the closure of bars throughout the pandemic
drove "household consumption" up, the figures were
unevenly distributed among different age groups.
According to the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, approximately 30% of people between the ages of 40 and 60 drink at least three days a week.
However, just 7.8% of people
in their 20s drank regularly.
In this way, the decline in drinking habits
year by year is thought to be having an effect

As a sleep researcher, I received
many questions and complaints
from relatives, friends, and colleagues
about their sleep disturbances
after recovering from Covid-19, Dr Huong T. X. Hoang, Lead author of the article
published in 'Frontiers in Public Health,' via PsyPost.
I found that the majority of papers
focused on hospitalized patients.
The environment of their treatment
and quarantine would differ greatly
from those with milder symptoms, Dr Huong T. X. Hoang, Lead author of the article
published in 'Frontiers in Public Health,' via PsyPost.
Patients were asked to compare the quality and length
of their sleep, as well as how easy it was for them to
fall asleep, before and after they contracted COVID.
Patients were asked to compare the quality and length
of their sleep, as well as how easy it was for them to
fall asleep, before and after they contracted COVID.
Of the 1,056 people surveyed, over 76.1% of
participants said they experienced insomnia.
22.8% of those surveyed reported
experiencing severe insomnia.
The study found that two groups experienced
a statistically significant increased rate of insomnia,
including those with depressive or anxious symptoms.
The authors of the study note that further
investigation of the connection between COVID,
mental health problems and insomnia is needed.
Since this is a cross-sectional
study, the relationship of anxiety
and depression with insomnia
cannot be fully investigated, Dr Huong T. X. Hoang, Lead author of the article
published in 'Frontiers in Public Health,' via PsyPost.
In addition, collecting data
online and a convenience
sampling method can cause
recall bias and selection bias. , Dr Huong T. X. Hoang, Lead author of the article
