It’s common with public health issues. UK drink drive laws came in 1964. In 1979 over 50% of men still admitted drink driving on a weekly basis. By 2012, 91% agreed drink driving was unacceptable deaths related to drink driving had dropped by 85%. It will happen with CTE.

The NFL settlement, predicted to pay $765M, is about to pass $1.2B in compensation for neurological disorders associated w/head impacts - with decades left. Also, due to the race norming problem, nearly 3,000 players are eligible to be retested before March. Info for players ⬇️

So many questions were left unanswered….so many lives I’d hoped to save instead I was left empty and bereft. Only thanks @AlixPopham have you heard and supported and become my voice with the best intentions to protect players. Thank you ❤️

The only way the unscientific amateur/professional dichotomy makes sense to me is that this an organized attempt by people in the sports industry to try to create this (cynical & inappropriate) narrative: 1. Amateurs don't have increased risks, so keep signing your kids up. 2. Pros may have increased risk, but they were adults and paid for the risks they took, so don't feel bad for them. Otherwise it makes zero sense to divide a disease with a clear dose-response relationship into whether or not athletes received a paycheck when they were at risk of developing CTE. We should be discussing CTE by cumulative force to the brain or years of exposure. I can't imagine what a parent will feel if they sign their child up based on this kind of statement and then watch their child becomes one of the "unlucky" ones.

As discussed with @drmbuckland & @alanpearcephd on @SportzfanRadio, it's not only concussion, it's also the long term, cumulative effects of the non-concussive hits that results in CTE! Our latest show discusses this with @alanpearcephd at: youtube.com/live/NcUXTugqL60

Great journalism from @liammannix here. I think his expose on the Australian MRFF scheme will resonate with the majority of medical researchers downunder.
