There is no evidence he suffered a concussion. Post the link including medical professionals treating him at the hospital saying he did. Have you people no shame to keep making your own facts up? Until you do that, I am not discussing anything else with you and your non facts.
His confusion, after a blow to the head, when he got back on the airplane is a symptom of a concussion.

No, I am not a nurse.
No, he would not be hospitalized without a medical indication to do so. The idea that someone would do that just to bolster his lawsuit is absurd.
Do you have any evidence supporting that he has been admitted for psychiatric reasons?
The attorney Dao has hired has experience with litigating football concussion cases. Some passengers are reporting that he looked like he was unconscious when he was dragged off the plane.

That is an almost certain sign of a concussion, which is also suggested by the fact that when he reboarded the plane, passengers depicted him as dazed. Only recently has the medical community started studying the danger of concussions particularly multiple concussions. However, an expert I know who is working with sports teams to try to reduce the risk of injury says there is increasing concern that as few as three concussions can produce cognitive impairment 10 to 20 years later. Those findings are based on trauma to young athletes like football players and boxers. The damage might show up sooner in an older victim. Admittedly, we have no idea if Dr. Dao has ever suffered a previous head injury, but the point is a concussion is far more serious than most people probably realize."

His behavior after he got back on the plan may be a symptom of a concussion, but it is certainly not conclusive evidence of one. The man after all has an extensive history of mental illness and aberrant behavior.
I also don't agree with you that he wouldn't be hospitalized without a medical indication. That's entirely within the jurisdiction of the doctor making that decision and as such, entirely subjective. I don't find it at all absurd that someone would remain hospitalized with the assistance of other docs providing him professional courtesy. In fact, I find your belief it couldn't happen quite naïve.
No, I do not have any evidence he has been admitted for psychiatric reasons. I did not claim I did. But, equally true, you don't have any evidence he does not remain hospitalized for psychiatric reasons. I will just say that if what is being reported is true, he has a pretty checkered psychiatric history.
Overbooking garbage just needs to stop. Leave a couple of seats unsold to transport crew members or standbys. It won't kill a flight to have two empty seats.

Even crazy people get sick.
He took a hard blow to the head.
Doctors do not admit other doctors to the hospital as "professional courtesy".

Because of HIPPA we don't really know why he's still in the hospital. For all we know, it could be related to a psychotic episode.
His psychiatric history (which is public record due to his legal proceedings) does not include any previous diagnosis of psychosis.
If he were psychotic I doubt he would be allowed to talk with reporters.
