“Better diets, more activity and everybody should think about a physical before this.”

Dr. William Morrone, the medical examiner for Bay, Midland, Tuscola, Arenac and Iosco counties in Michigan, regarding the news that at least three deer hunters have died of heart attacks so far during the 16-day season. Morrone said he had never seen three people die in 48 hours from heart attacks while deer hunting before and that hunters should better prepare themselves for the rigors of the outdoors. Two of the men who died were trying to haul away the heavy animals. (Associated Press — Nov. 20, 2024)
