Dr. Chiang fears long-term effects on stabbing victim (Shuttertstock)
NEW TAIPEI (TVBS News) — Dr. Chiang Kuan-yu condemned the near-fatal assault on a teenage student in New Taipei City as a testament to poor campus security, lamenting on Monday (Dec. 25) that the victim's life might be forever changed.
"Even if extracorporeal life support saves a life and restores breathing, the victim might suffer significant long-term effects," Chiang warned in a Facebook post.
In his post, Chiang noted that the longer one displays no signs of life, the longer the brain is deprived of oxygen, potentially leading to significant cognitive changes upon recovery.
Earlier on the same day, a 15-year-old male student at a New Taipei City junior high school was stabbed with a switchblade by a classmate, losing consciousness. Although extracorporeal life support has brought him back from the brink, his prognosis remains uncertain.
The incident reportedly started when the victim scolded a female student for not abiding by the rule of not entering other classes' classrooms, upsetting the girl. She sought help from a male classmate who then physically attacked the victim.
Chiang called this incident not an accident but a serious campus safety issue. He questioned how a juvenile delinquent was able to bring a knife into school, advocating for a "zero-tolerance" approach to violence in educational institutions.
Characterizing this event as representative of a "dark campus" environment, Chiang raised concerns about the safety of other students. He argued that if he were a parent of a student at that school, he wouldn't allow his child to continue attending.
