Ten deaths and dozens of hospitalizations in Arizona and New Mexico are believed to be linked to methanol in hand sanitizers. The cases are also associated with alcohol use disorder

BJ’s wholesale club recently recalled Blumen Clear Advanced Hand Sanitizer with 70 percent alcohol due to its methanol content. “Out of an abundance of caution, 4E Brands requests that members discontinue the use of this product immediately and dispose of it in accordance with local regulations,” the company said in a statement.

Costco also recalled Blumen hand sanitizer in May and Walmart in July.

The FDA first warned about nine products made in Mexico in June. Since then, dozens more have been added to the list.
