Great points.
Re: 41 - several years ago a high school lacrosse player in the Syracuse area was hit in the sternum by a lacrosse ball as his chest gear had ridden up and left that area exposed. Those balls can travel at over 70mph on a shot on goal. He was hurt pretty bad, unsure of how it turned out.
How many threads have you posted to where you disclaim your comments by saying you're not the patient's doctor, you haven't examined this patient directly, you can't speak with specificity to this patient, etc...
And yet, in this case you speak with certainty without disclaimer?
Why??

Congratulations. You win the award for the dumbest post on the thread.
Sometimes. I’m surprised there is not an AED on the sidelines. Bet there will be now. But the EMTs should have a defibrillator on their rig
Lord have mercy
Looks like R-on-T, as the good doctor indicated.
Game suspended for the evening.
So scary! My prayers for him and his family!!😥🙏
Yes bills were taking equipment off the field
Good!
Did he tear an aortic artery?
Aortic dissections are pretty rare in healthy young men. For a traumatic injury there is usually an abdominal torquing,, which separates the aorta from the posterior abdominal wall.
And we know with you it’s always about the vaccine. Car accident? Vaccine. Gunshot wound? Vaccine.
Yet this might be a crime scene.
100% truth
You see how they treated Kurt Warner and Tim Tebow.
Their “god” is moloch
It’s not how hard the hit is. It is the exact timing on the cardiac cycle. Hereditary conduction defects such as brugada syndrome or prolonged QT syndrome can make one even more susceptible
No doubt they have an AED right there but wouldn't fire it up if he had a pulse. Later reports cite a pulse but not breathing on his own. (Heart working but no signal to do so from brain).
Game has been called/postponed.
Seeing the replay it was a major concussion to the chest. Happens all the time but if there was a per-existing condition they never caught, those types of hits can be lethal.
There are however rare syndromes that are beginning to be understood as vascular ehlers danlos that may make one more susceptible to shear injuries. Most likely this was cardiac but there are a handful of other possibilities
I looked up R on T Phenomenon. It seems then, that the hit knocked his heart’s rhythm off and stopped it beating?
