It was the team's first game since the Bills' safety, Damar Hamlin, collapsed and suffered cardiac arrest in the midst of a Monday night game against the Bengals in Cincinnati — and the team said its stunning success from the very start of the game was in Hamlin's honor. After Hines' second kickoff return for a touchdown occurred in the third quarter of the game, fans and teammates went wild. Trainers surrounded Hamlin and he received CPR for several minutes as the Bills knelt to pray on the field. "Thankful for everyone who has reached out and prayed," Hamlin tweeted. The NFL said Hamlin will receive his full $825,000 for 2022 despite landing on the injured reserve list.

About 11% of people tested positive for some form of stimulant, like cocaine or methamphetamines, and 9% had opioids in their system. In 32% of the fatal accidents and 18% of the ones with serious injuries, there were two or more drugs in the system of someone involved.

☆ In Georgia midterms, health care takes a back seat to the economy

Both have highlighted policies that limit health care access in Georgia, such as its new six-week abortion ban and a decision by Republican Gov. Georgians have witnessed health services dwindle before and during the pandemic, straining the state’s medical system even as regional health care costs rise. Nearly half of Georgia’s 159 counties have no OB-GYN, according to the Georgia Board of Health Care Workforce. Some see the shutdowns as exacerbating racial disparities in health care access in Atlanta, where a 2018 Trulia analysis found 25.3 health care providers per 10,000 residents in the city’s majority-white census tracts, compared with 9.8 in majority-Black tracts. “I’m looking at somebody that is going to be for the community,” she says, “that’s going to help us with the health care — bring it closer to us.”

AUSTIN, Texas — A Texas doctor said Thursday he is working with state police to determine whether any of the 21 people killed in the Uvalde school shooting could have been saved had medical help arrived sooner. The Texas Department of Public Safety did not immediately return a message seeking comment Thursday. Four other physicians who are EMS and trauma specialists, along with other expert advisors, will also help in the review, Escott said. He said the review will look at autopsy reports and medical records from hospitals and paramedics who treated the victims. McCraw told families of the children killed in the shooting that the Texas Department of Public Safety “did not fail” Uvalde during the response amid escalating scrutiny over the department’s actions.

A representative for the University of Virginia Medical Center said they could not provide updates on patients' conditions without having identifying information for them.
☆ The anesthesiologist who is putting you under may work for a private-equity firm

But some physicians and patient advocates say the health care investments of private-equity firms and their drive to reap relatively short-term profits are inconsistent with putting patients first. Independent academic studies find that private equity’s laser focus on profits in health care operations can result in lower staffing levels at hospitals and nursing homes. Neither the FTC nor U.S. Anesthesia Partners responded to voice mails seeking comment; a spokesman for U.S. Anesthesia Partners confirmed the inquiry to the Journal, saying it is cooperating. NBC News asked both of NAPA’s private-equity owners about the disputes involving the company and the research showing higher costs associated with private-equity ownership of anesthesiology practices. Covid was sweeping the country and Moses Taylor was doing its best to respond to the health care crisis, according to its lawsuit.
