Facebook Inducing Asthma - Stock Market Watch

Italian doctors have warmed asthma patients from using Facebook in the medical Journal Lancet.

Seeing an ex-girlfriends’ picture on their profile page has been known to trigger asthma attacks in an 18 year old Italian boy. The sight of an ex raises a person’s blood pressure along with the breathing pattern which triggers asthma.

This is the worst kind of health hazard reported from internet use. People have been known to become internet addicts and have been admitted to rehab clinics. Children also have been reported to collapse after continuous playing of video games such as Sony (NYSE:SNE) Play Station and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) Xbox 360.
