José Genoíno, Brazilian politician, crook and former guerrilla fighter hospitalised and underwent a surgery, suffers from retroperitoneal sarcoma.

Yarrow's illness, correct me if I'm wrong, had no coverage anywhere outside of social media and the cmme probably doesn't read these forums often. I agree with you on Black Bart. On the other hand they seem to have a thing for some niche names. I've already mentioned a year or two ago how they love African musicians and there's already been three BBC obits for those this year: Dandy Krazy, Winnie Khumalo and Teddy Osei.

Arvi Hämäläinen dead at 108. This makes Helena Honkonen the last Finn subject of Nicholas II. There are a total of 5 left born before independence, 6 if you count Rafael Södergrann who lives in Sweden. One era coming to an end soon.

Just a facepalm on a joke I found unamusing. I don't have anything against you and quite enjoy your usual posts.

Daniel Bisogno hospitalised with dehydration, kidney failure and high fever, undergoing emergency dialysis.

I've retired my young Satya Mohan Joshi. This one is a young Zen monk Thích Thanh Từ, I thought I'd give this image an use as it's been sitting in my deadpooling folder for a year now and it's too beautiful to simply delete. "Get help" said Ulitzer, went through my profile and took a random post to facepalm. Someone's triggered!

Minus six celsius "dangerously cold"? Pfft.

I wonder if former Monaco PM Michel Lévêque is still alive. He'd be 91 now but is not on the "100 oldest living state leaders" list as it's been over 10 years since the last time he was confirmed alive. There's a memorial page from 2015 here, but it might be for another Michel Leveque. I can't find any images of this guy online.

Ivan Krasko hospitalised a couple of times recently, currently undergoing treatment and tests, strongly suspected to be suffering from intestinal cancer and apparently has lost his appetite. He's already suffering from atleast heart failure, brain lesions and major lung damage. Ex-wives are still sure he'll recover though: "I am sure that even if the terrible diagnosis is finally confirmed, Ivan will be able to overcome all difficulties and fight the disease"

Anastasios stable, improving and to be extubated. Terminal lucidity, surely?

I believe all except Rodríguez Lara, Enrile, Harberger and Soyuyüce are dead. Can't find anything from recent decades on the others. You could have Siphandone and Sonomyn Luvsangomvo, maybe Mukarram Talabani there. And to be honest, a 95+ list in the Political Frailty thread would be much more interesting, most of the living notable centenarians are on our radars. Talabani is still very much alive and might've been born 1923 instead of 1925. Here's an image of him from last year:

Jack Hoffman dead at 19

To be honest, I'm a bit suprised by how great he looks except for those swollen hands. He's been everyone's "months/weeks left at most" for three years now and this might be the first image in two years where he doesn't look like a badly embalmed, waxed cadaver

Long March veteran and colonel Min Jingde dead at 109/110 due to "ineffective treatment" Just around 7 left who I'm completely sure are alive. They stopped making proper lists after the December 2022 omicron outbreak...
