At present alcoholism is not diagnosed and treated until it has reached its late stage. Activities should now be directed toward early diagnosis and prevention. Some clues to early diagnosis are given (e.g., intoxication four times in a year, driving while intoxicated, bodily injury as a result of intoxication). Prevention will be achieved by changing attitudes toward alcohol, through mass media techniques and schools, to develop responsible drinking behavior and to impose negative sanctions on intoxication
