Alcohol filled thermometer is used for low temperature applications. (Weather) It’s freezing point is -70 degC
While mercury freezes at -38 deg C

Mercury is/was better for human and other animal temps. High thermal coefficient of expansion mercury vs. alcohol = better resolution for small temperature changes in a medical application.

For higher temperatures alcohol will boil before mercury will.
