Fake news. It is a matter of record that the troops reporting concussion symptoms didn't seek treatment until well after the attack.

I’ll help you. It’s a person who is killed or injured in war or accident.




Exactly.
I think you missed the point.

tens have been treated for concussions! Later in the story, the term concussion changed to “traumatic brain injury”.


Sounds like a Plaintiff attorney

Exactly. When "no casualties" was reported that was completely accurate at the time. As would be expected, as is common sense in fact, that is updated in the following days and weeks if symptoms of silent/hidden injury manifests itself. But we have folks who are gonna declare this a spectacular failure come hell or high water.

Yep. That bitch only has a job because of her "emotional" facial expressions. On election night, bitch actually cried on camera because Hillary lost.

I'd add that the injury must be known in order to be classified a casualty. Obviously. Can't count a casualty if you don't know about it yet.

Iraqi air base, not American. As for casualties, I wouldn't mind hearing a little follow up as to whether these U.S. soldiers have actual injury. What I found key in the military release was "sent for screening".

So I'd certainly hold off on any thought of sending missiles into Iran en masse at this particular stage. Surely you feel the same?

Liberal journalism is a lost cause. For all we know, these reports of head injuries or concussions, could be people who just asked for Tylenol or had migraines.

Trump needs to just crush her by asking her in public why she cried when she found out he was elected. Attack her credibility, as if she ever had any,

They are not being treated for TBI, they are being observed and tested for TBI. It is standard now in the military that if you are within a certain radius of a blast without proper safety gear and hearing protection you undergo the observation/testing program.

Yes, concussion is a mild TBI. Any symptoms would show up immediately and not days later though if there was true damage to the brain. And those symptoms would typically resolve in 7-10 days with no lasting impact unless there were additional injuries during the recovery period.

That’s what a concussion is.




frick you

Then use the term "concussion".

"Traumatic brain injury" can be anything from concussion to having the side of your head caved in.

You are a liar who supports lying.

See my post above yours, concussion is mild TBI. He should have added the “mild” descriptor, but technically he’s correct.
