  1. .https://vk.com/wall-4358706_116457. I know that I'm late and that this is not a proper obituary, but here are reports of Mark Makarenkov's passing. Mark Makarenkov was a Russian actor and dubber, who lived and worked in St. Petersburg. He died on 13th of June  at age of 76 after suffering a stroke.

    Mikhail Ignatyev, head of Russia's Chuvash Republic until earlier this year, rona'd out at 58. He'd made some headlines a few months back due to a litany of bad behaviour that saw Putin lose faith in him, including dangling a firefighter's keys above their head and making him jump for them in public.

    Well, one of the last things Ignatyev has done before getting the rona and dying was suing Putin.

    https://rbc.ru/rbcnews/society/05/06/2020/5eda1f1b9a794720e4a42a81. Russian actor Mikhail Kokshonov dies of the corona aged 83. He was also a crappy filmmaker and  directed such horrible films as "The Prosecutor's Birthday" (a movie, about a prosecutor and his guests celebrating the prosecutor's birthday (that was on the New Year's eve)  and ending up stuck in the prosecutor's apartment, because one of the guests has lost the key.) Here's the BadComedian's review. I'm Russian and I understand everything, but it's a pity that there are no English subs. Alexey Buldakov, the actor, who played the prosecutor, has died a year ago at 68, while touring in Mongolia

     

    I'm sorry, the reporters got it wrong. According to his wife, his causes of death were complications from a stroke, not COVID-19. https://rg.ru/amp/2020/06/05/eto-ne-koronavirus-zhena-kokshenova-nazvala-prichinu-ego-smerti.html

    No, he has  been  doing this in 2006-2008, if I'm not wrong. He has started doing this again. Welcome back, David!

    Notorious Russian Orthodox Cleric Dmitry Smirnov (he's barmier than Fred Phelps, Jerry Falwell and Ian Paisley put together) has the 'rona. He has called cohabitating women "unpaid prostitutes" and even celebrated the use of nuclear weapons. Another infamous clergyman named Vsevolod Chaplin has kicked the bucket  due to a heart attack this January. Russian actress Tatiana Vasilieva has the rona too. On the lighter note, legendary Russian singers Lev Leshchenko and Nadezhda Babkina (they're both in their 70's) have recovered from COVID-19.
