    Beside, no distancing has been respected at Dov's funeral and the health minister described it as "a funeral which will bring many other funerals".

    Who are the immortals?

    Meshulam Dovid Soloveitchik (1921-2021) Where the hell are my tefillahs? Age at death: 99 Known health issues: Well, everything. Serious cardiorespiratory disease, in critical condition with lung infection in December 2019, again in hospital after a fall in May 2020, got COVID in October 2020, was on life support and received tracheostomy. Cause of death: acute kidney failure as a likely complication of COVID-19. Alignment: well, Dov was the kind of guy you'd see in an angry bigot mob meeting up with torches to burn down Penthouse.

    Mabandla looked very well at Ambrose Dlamini's funeral. Barring COVID, he is not a goner.

    Actually he severely deteriorated on Friday, on Saturday he was breathing and they thought "he was improving" before he deteriorated again last night. But I think he was never conscious again and they perfectly knew he was utterly fucked.

    Well, the only time old Dovid was improving, he is dead. Took his biscuit.

    Ben Nsibandze reportedly dead, but unsurprisingly no valid sources can be found.

    India's most prominent cartoonist, 95-year old Narayan Debnath, hospitalised with urinary trait infection, neurological and respiratory issues, but improving. An immortal in the making or a rapid goner?

    Shabbat update: despite the title, he is actually improving.

    Hmmm.... only the "Menem outliving a successor" thing seems plausible.

    Just went to see. He celebrated his father's birthday by posting a photo, but I don't know how recent it is. Instagram does not allow me to see the comments (there are 18), so if some of you can and want here is the link. Ok: type instagram.com/amr_benhalim in the search bar and you'll find it.

    Hollywood Possibilities

    Cicely Tyson and Cloris Leachman were some of the youngest-looking nonagenarians around, at least until some time ago. I was convinced Tyson would make it to 100 easily.

    Oh, no, flowers were growing on his body as a side effect! The vaccine literally turned him into a vegetable!

    He was in the news last May because he was accused of embezzling. His son spoke in his defense. Last health news date back to two years ago, he was fine. I have the link to his son's Instagram account (which I can't find without it) on an old computer that takes 30 minutes to be turned on, but I'll probably give it a try later. He sometimes gave updates about his father.

    Abdelaziz Bouteflika

    Ali Bou is not that bad pick. His history of health issues is long and complex. Surely some time ago he was more in the spotlight than today.
