The OP proposed to return the methods of combating alcoholism from the Soviet era

Russia should actively use time-tested methods of combating alcoholism, including those used in the USSR, as historical experience shows that these measures have contributed to a reduction in mortality and an increase in the birth rate. This was announced on January 3 by Sergey Rybalchenko, Chairman of the Commission of the Public Chamber of Russia on demography, protection of family, children and traditional family values.

"We should not repeat the negative experience, but we should repeat the positive one. Because, in the end, the restriction of alcohol sales led to an increase in the birth rate and a decrease in the death rate of men of working age. These were outstanding demographic results," Rybalchenko commented on the Soviet anti—alcohol campaign in an interview with TASS.
