Yes. Alcoholism has killed many people both directly and indirectly. First, it can lead to dangerous health conditions and the alcoholic's neglect of his or her health. Too much alcohol leads to the development of various serious diseases such as cancer, heart problems, and liver problems. It can also cause sudden death by creating an inability to breathe.
Alcoholism causes death indirectly when an alcoholic drives while drunk. Often it is not even the alcoholic's own death, but the death of innocent strangers. Alcoholism is also is a major cause of homicide and suicide.
