drol 11,923 Posted November 17, 2020 Heart failure. Not in danger of life and expected to be discharged soon. From the accounts it seems episodic and not congestive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,923 Posted November 17, 2020 Actually I think the Reaper is directly teasing the DL now. There will be other 3 or 4 hospitalizations of people on the list and none of them will die. Then, with all hopes lost, there will be a relatively surprising death to break the record. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathrace 1,170 Posted November 21, 2020 It feels like he's circling the drain. He definitely needs to be retained for 2021 if he is still going come 1 January Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,577 Posted December 2, 2020 Dead. So it was a former French President who set the DL record. Feels wrong somehow Anyway, well done committee. A great year indeed. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,437 Posted December 2, 2020 Well done DL. 18! I never thought I'd see the day back in the grim days of the 2010 and 2011 lists! Amusing that the record goes with the death of one of the duller people still living on it too imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,644 Posted December 2, 2020 The only questions remaining being will the record be pushed higher before the year is out and will the record breaking 2020 performance curtail the usual early year moans about the dead certs omitted on the 2021 list?
