    That is… Incorrect, there is about a 30% death rate within one year of brain trauma but there is absolutely no data showing that someone is going to die within an hour of being knocked unconscious more often than not, especially if they are young

      I’m not saying that you’re wrong. You sound like you might know what you’re talking about. I just like publications and medical evidence. I trust that you won’t take it the wrong way.

      That is… Incorrect, there is about a 30% death rate within one year of brain trauma […]

      Source?

      […] but there is absolutely no data showing that someone is going to die within an hour of being knocked unconscious more often than not, […]

      Do you have a metastudy or something for that?

      especially if they are young

      That last sentence, do you have a source for the difference in outcome depending on the patient’s age?

        And it’s not on me to find the burden of truth for you. That’s a logical fallacy and a bad arguing tactic
