While freely conceding that one of either (death or chamber treatment) is one too many, it's important to underscore that we are NOT dealing with multiple fatalities on multiple days nor multiple treatments.

The short version is that these two certified divers were part of a buddy team diving Farnsworth on Sunday. Something went wrong and the buddy ended up unconscious on the surface while the other diver (the 62-year-old, as mentioned in previous posts) never surfaced.

The buddy was treated in the Catalina Hyperbaric Chamber. The search for the missing diver is on-going.
