Ok, as an Italian here's my point of view: here EVERYONE knows who Prince Philip was, almost NO ONE knows who DMX was. That's it.

So right now it's 2 from Murica, 1 from Europe and 3 from Africa. None from Asia. Who's there from each country? India Dilip Kumar (1922) S.A.S. Geelani (1929) Saalumarada Thimmakka (1911) Fauja Singh (1911) VS Achuthanandan (1923) KR Gowri Amma (1919) Philipose Mar Chrysostom (1918) G.

So, who are the oldest living Cardinals and what is their health like? 1. Albert Vanhoye (1923) Health issues: apparently fine. He is a scholar who never held any diocese. 2. Jozef Tomko (1924) Health: very good health, still able to stand and walk unaided. 3. Alexandre José Maria dos Santos (1924 or 1918) Health: tragic! Confined to a wheelchair for years, unable to speak, utterly frail. According to Mozambican articles he celebrated his 103rd birthday last month. 4. Alexandre do Nascimento (1925) Health: bad. Obese, unable to walk unaided and overall very frail. 5. Francisco Alvarez Martinez (1925) Health: in fine nick till some years ago, seems to have deteriorated recently. 6. José Freire Falcao (1925) Health: very frail. 7. Estanislao Esteban Karlic Health: quite frail, but not tragic. 8. Luigi De Magistris (1926) Health: was already sick in 2010. Must be bedridden now. 9. Agostino Cacciavillan (1926) Health; mentally sharp, able to walk with a cane, overall very good. 10. Emmanuel Wamala (1926) Health: how is this guy still alive? It was a continued hospitalization for him two or three years ago. His successor died last week. Uberfrail.

Fake News according to fake-news spreader Berlusconi-affiliated outlet Il Giornale. He has only suffered "a minor fall" and is not in any danger.

In a critical condition. Due to COVID-19, he has been hospitalized two months after testing positive again, which prompted him from receiving vaccine. His conditions deteriorated sharply last week, but is showing improvement right now.

Well, you could simply quote the post.

Ramsey dead as reported above. Last survivor of Johnson administration.

The manager has actually confirmed his cancer spread to his brain if Google Translate is right.

Still so sure Lizzy will be the last one standing?

Too standard, like thousands of obits which circulated in the last 24 hours. But I can't remember at the moment a DL obit which was particularly witty, though I'm sure there were.

Hmmmm... lame obit.
