Australian study finds young adults face frequent alcohol ad exposure on social media, leading to potential public health concerns.

Australian university research reveals young adults are exposed to an alcohol ad every 2.7 minutes on social media, with 125 students aged 17-25 exposed to nearly 800 ads within 30 minutes.

They call for greater regulation of alcohol advertising on social media platforms as a public health concern.
