Re:Top Russian rocket scientist dies from ‘mushroom poisoning’ by Kretinsky on Saturday September 02, 2023 @07:07PM (#37366262)
Just like for road accidents, death is a wrong measure, as it really depends on your health, i.e a 20 years forager will survive whereas an 80 years old one would die. Many mushrooms are liver-toxic, so if you already have hepatitis (very common in Russia), you're probably more prone to die from a poisonous one.

Intoxication leading to hospitalization is a better measure.
