I always come back to boxing. You get knocked down (concussed), you have ten seconds to show you have your faculties.. If you can't, you lose and you don't fight again for MONTHS. In rugby, it's now 11 days and you're good to go! Paul McCrory should be in court for the horrific impact his 'research' has had on concussion decisions worldwide.

Sports people (except for the few at the very top) do not get paid enough for the risks they take. Lots of people do not get paid enough for the risk they take. But perhaps instead of just/only straight paying them more, we need to provide better security. eg healthcare and secure employment once they are past their prime etc. As for medical ethics, the problem will always exist as long as people are going into the field for money rather than because they genuinely want to help others. There are so many good doctors out there, but a few rotten apples can really destroy the hard work of the many.

People of the general population have known for decades of the potential for brain injury in contact sports. No one, let alone the sporting bodies themselves, needed to be told by any medical experts of the risks. I’m not surprised that there has been a cover up. There has been an over representation of retired rugby and rugby league players in the statistics of early onset dementia for a long time.

Who is paying the scientists, that is the question? Tobacco companies, environmental groups, big pharma, sports clubs and national sports teams. If scientists come up with the wrong conclusion they may not get their payday and will probably be replaced by someone that reaches the right conclusion.

Most likely the sport organizations themselves, and betting agencies. They would have the most to lose, financially.

There have been many politicians who have spoken out about the war in Ukraine, the United Nations has also voted on this issue. Now the religions, Catholic clergy, Protestants, Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism....are themoral cultivator, saving souls, helping the community...speak up. about this war, put pressure on Russia, Ukraine, the US, and Western Europe to find a solution to end the war through negotiation, because the war has so far claimed 100,000 Russian and Ukrainian soldiers and many civilians. killed by bombs, because houses were destroyed, no place to live leading to death from hunger, because of cold in winter without electricity and water (power plants were destroyed). How can religions and priests not speak out about the suffering of people in Ukraine and even ordinary people in poor countries, without enough food to eat, and the danger of nuclear war for humanity. because the ambition and hatred of the leaders in Russia, Ukraine, America, Western Europe has pushed people in Ukraine and the world into disaster. Even though it's late, but the cultivator should speak up, otherwise it won't be in time. Famous people in the fields of sports and entertainment such as singers, musicians, writers.., entrepreneurs, billionaires, cultural and educational writers, please do not Let's stay silent but speak up and express our thoughts on this war, and jointly put pressure on Russia, Ukraine, the US, and Europe for them negotiate to find a solution to end the war and bring sustainable peace to the country Ukraine. Don't only stand to watch 100,000 people die when you can do something to help them. Liem To Liem
