Like most of his teammates, Johnson tested positive for COVID-19 during the summer. Although the cause of Johnson's ailment was not immediately known, the coronavirus can lead to myocarditis, a viral infection of the heart muscle.

None of the players- none of his teammates- went to help him. They all just stood there. What the hell is wrong with everyone?

We were taught that in hockey growing up. If the player has a pulse and breathing, you are not in any way to touch him until medical personnel arrive. Otherwise you can provide CPR and that’s it.

Only if your certification is up to date.

That is not correct. I was a red cross CPR trainer for some time. You can do CPR as long as you are comfortable with the process. Certification is just for places that require it such as employment at a health care facility, daycare of something like that. Anyone can and should assist and perform CPR if necessary as long as they know how -- just to be clear IF YOU KNOW HOW. There are good samaritan laws for this very reason.
As to organized sports, they may very well have protocol, but that doesn't mean you can't act if the need arises.
