This a plea to journalists.
When someone dies under a pile of officers, the death is NOT an isolated event.
And there are many more deaths than just the death of George Floyd.
Let's start with 4/19/21 death of #MarioGonzalez
Body camera released yesterday

Gonzalez was held prone (on stomach) and handcuffed for multiple minutes before he stopped breathing
Happened in Alameda, CA, day before George Floyd verdict.
It's generated quite a few stories now that body cam is out

It's natural for people to see this and instantly think of Floyd
But here's the thing,
Our ongoing #PRONE investigation has found dozens of other deaths just like the deaths of Floyd and Gonzalez
How many?
My list now has 118 names. People like Roy Nelson. Died in 2015

We found more than 100 people who died, facedown and handcuffed, as we looked into the prone restraint death of #GeorgeFloyd.
As the #DerekChauvinTrial begins... it's important to know the dangers of the position are well known.

Like many investigations, this one started with another.
Last year, I started looking into the 2018 death of David Baker.
Baker, a Navy veteran, died shortly after several Aurora police officers pinned him to the ground after a violent confrontation.

According to the coroner's report, Baker died of "restraint asphyxia"
He died, in essence, because he couldn't breathe enough air in and out of his body.

#CCCF2020 Brian Kavanaugh Controversies - #COVID19: #ARDS or not? What we really addressed - not so much "is it ARDS?" but rather, "does it matter?" So happy to have been a part of this, but man, I still have so much to say! My take on the ? – yes, it matters - to an extent 🧵 1/
Pre-intubation management: YES, but not because it substantially changes methods of support, or the criteria used for #intubation. It matters because categorizing patients as having #ARDS has value. 2/
Starting a series on clinical Pearls I am gathering in #COVID19 patients based on experiences of many experts
Will add as we go along

Anosmia is likely the most specific #COVID19 related symptom
30% of patients have anosmia as their 1st symptom

Around 90% of patients have fever.
50% maybe afebrile at the time of presentation
Fever tends to be very resistant to routine measures in hospitalized patients
There is no consensus that NSAIDs are to be avoided in #COVID2019 patients
