' Russia sets minimum vodka price to curb alcoholism. ' ' The Associated Press ' Date: Friday Jan. 1, 2010 10:37 AM ET ' ' MOSCOW — The Russian government has set a minimum price for vodka that more ' than doubles the cost of the cheapest vodka on the market in an effort to fight ' rampant alcoholism. ' ' The measure also is aimed at reducing the extraordinary number of deaths caused ' by drinking in Russia. ' ' The minimum price of 89 rubles ($3) for a half litre of vodka went into effect Friday, ' the start of the 12-day New Year's and Orthodox Christmas holiday, when alcohol ' consumption is at its highest. ' ' President Dmitry Medvedev has publicly decried Russia's drinking problem and its ' effect on the nation's well being. ' ' A study published last year in The Lancet medical journal said drinking has caused ' more than half of deaths among Russians aged 15 to 54 since the 1991 Soviet collapse.
