    Peng Shilu, the "father of Chinese nuclear submarines", dead at 95. Huang Xuhua, who is also 95, is often referred with that title, and it generated quite a controversy. Historians believe Peng deserved the title more. Huang is a student of decrepit naval engineer Yang You (1917) who has been in hospital for three years and counting.

    Notable Coronavirus Victims

    Mwinyi, who is not at risk because fuckers like him are never at risk, was in great shape at Samia's inauguration and was one of the few people to wear a mask. Get the feeling the new president could go before him, Musuguri or Cleopa Msuya.

    Welcome Amadou Mahtar M'Bow to the 100 club! Another decrepit African centenarian is what we needed.

    Notable Coronavirus Victims

    Bosnian wartime leader, close Milosevic's associate and human rights criminal Biljana Plavsic in a serious condition with COVID. Our thoughts are with COVID at the moment.

    African Leaders - Despots and Democratic

    Yeah, surely. Words from his VP, after months of denying COVID would they say the dork had died of COVID? Pierre Nkurunziza went exactly the same way. And another Tanzanian president, Benjamin Mkapa, died of "malaria" in the full denial period, with strong rumors it was not "malaria". Almost sure Magufuli died of COVID, but it won t be confirmed before some years in the best hypothesis.

    According to Tanzanian VP, it is normal to be "indisposed" after "a flu", so she asks for "prayers". Magufuli and COVID are never mentioned explicitly.

    World's Oldest

    Nasser Bin Abdullah Al Hillel, Saudi Arabia's oldest muezzin, dead at 118. Take 20 years away from that age and you'll get a more realistic result.

    Art For Death's Sake

    Indian painter Laxman Pai dead at 95. Last week he received his COVID vaccine. The vaccine article notes he was a terminal COPD sufferer with "a hole in his lungs" who used a wheelchair to move around. Yeah, maybe the vaccine could be acquitted for his death.

    Old Shyam gets his vaccine and does not look bad at all. Well, maybe a bit.

    Political Frailty

    While 3 months without a hit in the Oldest Living State Leaders DP have passed, I note the Mohammed Hasan Sharq was in top shape in January. Here's one who has 100 written all over him.

    John Magufuli alive and well in Tanzania, at least according to his PM. But I think this is a rather elaborate scam to destroy Lissu's credibility and the bastard is not ill at all.

    The 100 Club

    And here is a pic from fellow HK centenarian Henry Hu's 101st birthday. Quite difficult to think this guy can carry on administrative duties of an uni, which implies receiving more or less 300 emails per day, but if they believe that it's fine for me.

    Former Kenyan PM Raila Odinga tests positive for COVID and is hospitalized. Also received treatment for neurological disease these past days. He should survive, but it is far from guaranteed.

    His staying power actually sucks. Chao Kuang Piu dead at 100.

    No, it's Tundu Lissu, whose name recalls Tondo Liscio, the most appreciated variety of tomato in Italy.
