His predecessor died in April from covid and his predecessor's predecessor died in May 2020 lung, kidney diseases and covid. AND the director-general of the academy died in May from a stomach disease and other health troubles. And sounds like Rafiqul will also go this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,437 Posted October 21, 2021 Dunno where else to put this but the successful transplantation of a pig's kidney into a brain dead patient does suggest the usual ambulance chasing element of low-hanging dead pooling might be impacted. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-58993696 If this catches I'm assuming Nigel Farage's GB News audience might finally break six figures!

It would be better to reinstate the thread, as he is a possible DL pick 2022, as a European current head of state. BBC, Reuters, Al Jazeera, CNN, AP, Washington Post, Independent, Bloomberg, The Guardian and others have made articles about his illness, he's a current Head of State of an European country, clearly very ill and there has been a Czech President on the DL before. (Václav Havel, DL 2009. Dropped, died 2011) At this point seems like he'll be on the list unless he either dies or somehow gets better. Considering that he is a 77-year old heavy drinker, chain smoker and has been for decades, has diabetes and now likely liver failure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something that's been getting on my nerves begrudgingly lately is announcing whether someone is or isn't vaccinated when they get COVID-19 and hospitalised. I could be entirely wrong here in my frustration, but if you're getting hospitalised your vaccination status really goes out the window if we're using that to determine their current health. Just comes off as some subtle "vaccines don't work" propaganda. I'm not necessarily getting mad at you, more so the general discourse. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't given much thought to it, but added it to my post as part of the information given in the article. Then again, I suppose that's how these kinds of habits in reporting spread and become part of the discourse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aww man, not Tongo. I had all his many UK number one hits, loved his duet with Nicole Kidman, and found his BBC sitcom interesting. It's always the household names that get ill... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
