LOADING ERROR LOADINGCNN’s chief medical correspondent is calling for a “public assessment” of GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump’s injuries after the attempt on his life, arguing that voters deserve to know the results of a medical evaluation. “A full public assessment of Trump’s injuries is necessary, for both the former president’s own health and the clarity it can provide for voters about the recovery of the man who could become president of the United States once again,” neurosurgeon Dr. Sanjay Gupta wrote in a Friday article.

And despite sources telling the media that Trump underwent a CT scan showing no cause for alarm, Gupta warned that firearms can produce tremendous force and lead to unseen health effects. “With that much power close to the head, there can be injuries beyond what’s visible,” he wrote.
