Chinadaily.com.cn ran a Beijing Today story on Friday about health exams given to over a thousand reporters in China, and how the results aren’t so good for the industry. They report that only 2.4%, or 28 of 1,182 members of the press came back with a clean bill of health. It appears that stress is described as responsible for most ailments included, such as stomach problems and lack of sleep.
While the numbers appear staggering, it should be pointed out that there is no comparison against the rest of the Chinese population, or any other segment of the workforce.
