The Obese could pay more for Insurance in China

An interesting news:

Life insurers in China can charge obese people, whose body mass indexes (BMIs) exceed 30 for men and 28.6 for women, up to 200% more than normal premiums, as research shows they are more likely to get ill than those who are of normal weight, reports the Xinhua News Agency. The BMI is obtained by dividing one's mass over the square of one's height in metres.
