Although major Internet manufacturers have publicly stated that they have cancelled 996, reduced overtime, and forced vacations, news of the sudden death of Internet employees continued to spread.

  On February 23, ByteDance’s intranet responded to the “sudden death of a 28-year-old employee of ByteDance” on the Internet, saying that the student behaved abnormally when exercising in the gym on the 21st. Ambulance, as of 0:30 on February 23, the student is in critical condition and is still being rescued in the hospital.

As of now, ByteDance has not updated the latest progress.

Officials say they are still doing their best to rescue

  At 9 o'clock on the evening of February 22, the employee's wife (Wu Wei) called for help in the owner's WeChat group, saying, "My husband died suddenly in ByteDance, only 28 years old, and I myself am 28 years old. I am currently pregnant with 2 I am pregnant for months. At present, our mortgage loan is more than 21,000 per month, and the mortgage is 30 years old. The sudden death of my lover makes me unable to bear the mortgage. What should I do, my friends, and can I check out and get a refund. "

  In the description of ByteDance, at 18:00 on February 21st, Wu went to the Zhongweitong gym to exercise.

At 18:56, student Wu developed dizziness after exercising for about an hour and went to the tea room to rest.

The gym coach noticed that he was behaving abnormally and stepped forward to ask.

Student Wu said that he might have low blood sugar. The coach poured him a glass of sugar water and informed the administrative front desk to activate the SOS duty number.

  At 19:09, the security manager obtained the support of the sphygmomanometer on the scene. After measuring the blood pressure for Wu, he suggested that he contact his colleagues to accompany him to see a doctor.

During this period, Wu students vomited.

At 19:18, the coach called 120.

At the same time, the security manager and another security guard at the scene performed CPR first aid on Wu (both of them hold first aid certificates).

  At about 19:30, 120 emergency personnel arrived at the scene for treatment, and then sent Wu to an ambulance.

As of 0:30 on February 23, according to the feedback from the hospital, Wu was in critical condition and is still being rescued.

  At present, the core difference between the family's voice and the ByteDance intranet article is that the employee's wife said that Wu Wei had been brain-dead on the night of the 22nd, but ByteDance said that the company is still doing its best to save Wu Wei's life.

In an article on first aid knowledge, Dr. Lilac said that after cardiac arrest, various organs of the body will be ischemia, and brain cells will die when they lose blood supply for 4 to 6 minutes, and brain death may occur in more than 8 minutes, leading to nervous system. It is difficult to recover, so CPR must be performed within the "golden four minutes".

Judging from the current timeline announced by ByteDance, it is not yet possible to judge whether the "golden four minutes" was missed due to the delay in first aid.

  Regarding the details, ByteDance did not respond further.

Young people need to do good cardiovascular and cerebrovascular protection

  At present, medical reports are supporting the continuous increase in the number of sudden deaths caused by cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in my country.

"China Cardiovascular Health and Disease Report 2020") shows that the prevalence of cardiovascular disease in my country is on the rise, and the number of patients currently is about 330 million, including 13 million stroke (also known as stroke or cerebrovascular accident), coronary heart disease 11.39 million and 8.9 million with heart failure.

In the past ten years, the mortality rate of cardiovascular disease among urban and rural residents in my country has also been on the rise.

  In an article researching the high sudden death rate of young people, Dr. Lilac said: Over the past 30 years, the overall cardiovascular mortality rate in my country has shown a rapid upward trend.

From 205/100,000 in 1990 to 322/100,000 in 2019, the death rate per 100,000 is 1.6 times that of 30 years ago.

  At the same time, it should be noted that in the past two decades, the proportion of deaths among young people has increased significantly, which is closely related to active or passive unhealthy living habits.

Including smoking, drinking, obesity, unhealthy diet, sedentary, etc.

Long-term sleep deprivation not only increases sudden death due to cardiovascular disease, but also increases the risk of accidents due to reduced cognitive function.

  The survey shows that about 80% of white-collar workers in my country are in a state of excessive fatigue.

Chronic fatigue stress is not only the cause of premature coronary heart disease in young and middle-aged people, but also an important cause of sudden cardiac death in young and middle-aged coronary heart disease patients, accounting for 65% to 80% of the cases of sudden cardiac death.

  In the context of the continuous increase in cardiovascular prevalence, it is particularly important to pay attention to health and self-protection awareness.

In January this year, a fresh graduate employee of Tencent publicly questioned the company's executives working unreasonably high-intensity overtime just to keep up with the progress of the project and ignore the health of employees.

The freshman criticized the WeChat Product Department's comment on "more than 20 consecutive hours of design and development" in the "Self-Breakthrough Award": "With a one-day delay in the internal test, will the company's WeChat go out of business immediately? The official website is delayed for one day and the customer Do you immediately go to Dingding Feishu? Do you have to ask the developers to add more than 20 hours of work to make this version meet your expectations? Have you considered your subordinates when you are scheduling tasks? Human life?"

  Subsequently, Huang Tieming, the person in charge of the company's WeChat, responded on Tencent's internal forum that he recognized the attitude of this classmate who dared to speak out about the problem.

Continuous, high-intensity rush marches are not sustainable, and will inevitably affect everyone's work-life balance and health.

"From the perspective of department managers, my attitude is that it is not objective and unsustainable to judge a person's work performance or performance ranking only based on everyone's working hours." Huang Tieming said.
