I was just thinking, what if he died on the field, but they are keeping it a secret to avoid any connection with the rise of “died suddenly”?

So the game plan is to say they were able to get his heart beating, then wait maybe another week or so to announce his death. Or maybe say he’s in a coma, and the family will “pull the cord”?

If people knew he dropped dead on the field, it would just be more fuel for antivax. But if people think he not only got a pulse back, but hung in there for a prolonged time, now the event is distanced from the whole “died suddenly” fiasco.

This would also explain why the players on the field were so distraught. They appeared more sad than scared. Scared is an appropriate emotional response to someone getting CPR because you still have hope that they can make it. Sad is an appropriate emotional response to someone you have seen die and there is no going back and no hope for bringing them back.

Thoughts?
