Abstract
⺠Currently, an increase of the EU-wide minimum tax on alcohol is under debate. ⺠No EU-wide scientific study of the resulting population health effects exists. ⺠Using novel data and a dynamic projection tool we quantify potential health gains. ⺠The health gains when harmonising prices to the Finnish level are substantial.
