I still can't see how anybody can gather enough information from a news
article to determine that this event has anything to do with a first

medical.

The idea of a first-class medical is that it prevents the kind of
event that makes a pilot too ill to fly the plane.

A first-class medical is basically a visual check. The next step, to be more
thorough, would be an autopsy. I'd recomend you having one.
