A new report reveals the number of concussions sustained by children could be vastly underreported, given that only emergency room diagnoses are counted toward the CDC’s tally and not those identified by pediatricians. What do you think?


“Look, if I spent time worrying about every single one of my kid’s concussions, when would I eat and sleep?”

“Yeah, well, there are a lot of things I don’t tell the CDC.”
