It is possible to get sick by performing CPR on someone, especially when doing rescue breaths. Hands-only CPR is an alternative which involves chest compressions which reduces that risk. Also, if someone has been dead for hours, performing CPR on them would be pointless.

Can you come back to life after your heart has stopped for 7 hours?

Some drowning victims usually children have been brought back after a couple of hours but not 7. I believe a persons heart may have been stopped for that long during surgery, but they have been on a bypass machine so they were not dead even though their heart was stopped. After 7 hours, you would be dead and even if by some chance the body was re animated, the brain would be dead.
