                                According to Doctors Without Borders, thousands of people are poisoned by methanol every year, with fatality rates ranging from 20% to 40% in outbreaks. Though commercial alcoholic beverages are regulated to contain safe, negligible amounts, illicitly produced alcohol poses a severe risk of high, toxic concentrations of methanol.
