Chauvin said if Floyd could talk he could breathe which is true if someone is choking. However, major blood vessels like the carotid artery were being occluded. I do wonder if the reason for the neck hold was to minimize the spread of Covid 19 by keeping his head turned in the opposite direction. Chauvin told police he had Covid.
