In the U.S., more than 2,200 people die from alcohol poisoning each year.
Alcohol poisoning is typically caused by binge drinking a large amount of alcohol in a short period of time.
Life-threatening signs of alcohol poisoning include vomiting, seizures, inability to wake up, slowed or irregular breathing or heart rate, and bluish skin tone.
For anyone exhibiting these signs, call 911 or get the person to a health care facility immediately. B96 Cares!
