I posted a response to this 6 hours ago which apparently was deleted. I don't get it. So let's try posting the offensive one-liner again. 'That's a lot of family if you include his ex-wives'. I damn well posted it, it's not present anymore. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genfærd 452 Posted January 4, 2021 Well, I guess we're assuming that Larry King is a goner within the next 24 hours if he hasn't already passed. Oh the shame that the committee left him out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zsa Zsa's leg 884 Posted January 4, 2021 Even if he survives covid, I still think he's gone this year. Aren't heart attacks, strokes, etc more common with post-covid symptoms and complications? This could also be an issue with Los Angeles' 0% hospital capacity. They may be triaging patients who need the ICU bed more than King. This doesn't necessarily mean that he is out of the woods yet.

Oh the shame that the committee left him out. Looks like he was on oxygen but not on a ventilator.(much like Boris Johnson).He is now breathing on his own and out of ICU.He's even spoken to his sons on a video call.

jcc 228 Posted January 6, 2021 Larry's looked very iffy for some years now but always bounces back. I think he'll see the year out quite comfortably. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually, if one of the oldest notible survivors in the world with 3 heart attacks and stroke behind him does that, I may as well swim across the channel.

Ulitzer95 12,577 Posted January 7, 2021 16 minutes ago, drol said: And I guess Luke Letlow's death shows how truly harmless it is. What it shows is that there are always genetic outliers, nothing more. The number of people under 60 with no underlying health conditions who have died from COVID-19 in the UK is only 388 (as of 27th December 2020). That's across 12 months and millions of people within that age bracket. Once they knew the risk factors associated with morbidities i.e. age, cancers, type 1 diabetes, obesity, all those who were vulnerable should have practiced shielding, whilst the rest of us got on with our lives. These repeated lockdowns are far more devastating long term. According to the Centre for Economics and Business Research, lockdown is costing the UK economy £2.4 billion per day. It's utter madness. In 20 years time we will look back at this and acknowledge we heavily overreacted. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
