Although ambulances are common sense, the indispensable safety equipment in the stadium has failed to stop the frequency of accidents, and players often miss the golden rescue period. Despite being repeatedly criticized by fans, the Chinese Super League follows strict regulations in this regard. Many local and foreign players have suffered serious injuries, and ambulances have been quickly dispatched to rushed the injured to hospitals for the first time to receive diagnosis and treatment. However, the Australian Super League has also come under fire from many fans for its shortcomings in the amateur hour!
However, the maintenance team at Melbourne's home ground may have something to say about that, after all, they are not equipped with an ambulance - something that is allowed by the AFL.In 2018, the state of Victoria, where the Melbourne team is based, legislated for the removal of on-site ambulance services, with EMTs acting as temporary ambulance attendants instead. At the time, the AFL president recognized the Victorian reform initiative, arguing that the role of the emergency physician was more critical compared to the ambulance!
It remains to be seen whether the outbreak of the Juan de incident will prompt the AFL to revisit its position.
