Health Hazard

I am getting alarmed by the health problems that some of my colleagues have come to face during the discharge of their duties.

At least three people I know have been affected by tuberculosis and one of them even had to undergo surgery because of the complications.

At least two people I know have had mild heart attacks due to stress.Of course,in one case it was due to a metabolic problem but still stress might have been the trigger.

One of my friends was attending an interview where there was a medical checkup.The doctors found elevated blood pressures in 9 out of 10 candidates although none of them had symptoms.

I have forgotten the number of people who have mild complaints like back pain,gastritis etc.

Is the 'noble profession' really worth the price?
