Man Dies After Going 11 Days Without Sleep: What Are The Health Risks Of Sleep Deprivation?
Posted in: Today's ChiliGoing 11 days without sleep likely cost a Chinese man his life earlier this week, as he attempted to watch every game in the European Championship, TIME reported.
The Telegraph reported that the 26-year-old, who was given the false name Jiang Xiaoshan by the Sanxiang Metropolis newspaper in China, was healthy before he started his soccer-watching marathon.
“Jiang was in good health. But staying up through the night and not sleeping enough weakened his immune system and he drank and smoked while watching the football, triggering his condition,” Liu Zhiling, a doctor from the People’s Hospital ER, told the Sanxiang Metropolis, as reported by The Telegraph.
