And FYI for anyone reading this, mouth to mouth isn't really recommended anymore.

First call 911 or have someone else do it. Then start chest compressions for as long as you can. Switch off with another person if you need to. But keep going until paramedics arrive.

have someone else do it.

I feel this kicks the ball down the field a bit. It definitely fails strong induction.

Usually, it would be you telling someone "call 911 right now" while you start chest compressions.

It's important to direct your command to a specific person rather than "someone" because of the bystander effect.
