Wasn't there some kind of health risk problem that arose a few years
back when construction companies started using sheetrock manufactured

Yes, it was a huge problem in high humidity areas like Florida. The
Chinese drywall had a high sullphur content which released sulphuric
acid vapor under the right conditions. That was not only a health
hazzard but also corroded copper wiring and pipes. The only
remediation was to strip out all of the drywall and rebuild the
interior, a very expensive proposition as you can imagine.

That is mostly from particle board.
