Bethany Clarke has initiated a petition to raise awareness about the dangers of methanol poisoning after her best friend, Simone White, died from the toxic substance while they were on holiday in Laos. The two friends consumed shots at a bar, leading to severe illness that resulted in Simone’s tragic death, while Bethany gradually recovered. The petition calls for methanol poisoning education to be included in school curricula, emphasizing the need for awareness of bootleg alcohol risks to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
