I am Korean and we are getting "dead confirmed" number separately now, reported by hospitals. So yes, "cardiac arrest" is reported from the accident site and it is unlikely that they are going to survive.
I wonder how it is different in other countries.
- bkjelden 4y agoIn the US journalists will often use the term 'unresponsive' in similar situations.
- andrelaszlo 4y agoSwedish media usually say "seriously injured" until police or hospitals confirm.
- kbumsik 4y agoThinking about it, we also say “injured or dead" (사상자) when it's about the number.
- lost_tourist 4y agothat's not uncommon in the USA either when news is still incoming from an ongoing emergency situation with incomplete information available.
- joshspankit 4y agoI guess “stopped heart” is technically correct. Odd that there’s an overlap where in North America we normally think of it as meaning heart attack.
