An adviser to the Health Ministry, Hossein Hassanian confirmed the news, saying that the difference in death tallies is because some alcohol poisoning victims died outside of the hospital.

The Iranian health ministry spokesman said that 525 people have died from swallowing toxic methanol alcohol since February 20, state TV reported this week.

Jahanpour said a total of 5,011 people had been poisoned from methanol alcohol, adding that about 90 people had lost their eyesight or were suffering eye damage from the alcohol poisoning.

Iran is facing one of the worst coronavirus outbreaks in the Middle East with 5,806 deaths and more than 91,000 confirmed cases.
