ABSTRACT
According to the American Medical Association, 1500 people die annually due to accidental carbon monoxide exposures. More than 10,000 people seek medical attention, and there are in›nitely more who experience the nonlethal health effects and fail to report their mishaps. Medical experts speculated the reason for underreporting is that the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble other common ailments and are not recognized as carbon monoxide poisoning.
