Kazakhstan Considers Officially Recognizing Gambling Addiction as Disease

Kazakhstan
Deputy Yelnur Beisenbayev said that the norm was included in the bill on issues of gambling, lotteries and lottery activities.

“We want to introduce such a concept as “gambling addiction” into all health related laws. This already needs to be treated like a disease,” explained the deputy and added that a number of rehabilitation centers that treat this “disease” are doing this illegally, so “the activity needs to be regulated.”
