Many Chiefs fans who suffered frostbite at bitter cold playoff game need amputations

The estimated 30% lucky enough to avoid amputation after undergoing treatment the past few weeks in hyperbaric oxygen tanks will have plenty of reminders of their frostbite injuries.
Definitely a moment when you ask "What the fuck."
The article isn't available "in my region", so I can't see if it address it, but
The estimated 30% lucky enough to avoid amputation after undergoing treatment
I feel like that statement is missing the percentage or total number of people who underwent treatment in the first place.
Was it 10 people?
100?
1000?
Still, any public gathering like this with instances of amputation due to frostbite should be a pretty big deal. Especially if there's multiple of them.
I read it. It says the doctors have seen 'dozens' of patients, 'most of which' were people who attended the game. 30% is of all the patients who were diagnosed with frostbite, which includes anyone who got it in January basically.
