Default 8 Million Die Every Year - Food Poisoning.

Food poisoning is the result of eating microbes or toxins in
contaminated food. Cases can affect one person or can occur as an
outbreak in a group of people who all ate the same contaminated food.
While many cases are the result of bacteria, some cases can be the
result of poisonous components of plants and animals. Food poisoning
affects between 60 and 80 million people worldwide each year,
resulting in approximately 6 to 8 million deaths.
