arghton 6,756 Posted May 1, 2021 India's struggling with COVID. Indians we've lost 29.4, 30.4 and 1.5 to covid: 29.4: Riyaz Ahmad (1958-2021) 5-time Member of the Legislative Assembly Rajendrasingh Baghel (1945-2021) Longtime politician Laxman Giluwa (1964-2021) Parliament member 2014-2019 30.4: Chandro Tomar (1932-2021) Sharpshooter, internet fame Sanjivi Sundar (1938/1939-2021) Transport secretary, bureaucrat Jagdish Lad (1977/1978-2021) Bodybuilder K. V. Anand (1966-2021) Bollywood cinematographer, COVID and cardiac arrest. 1.5: Debu Chaudhuri (1935-2021) Sitarist, also had dementia Mohammad Shahabuddin (1967-2021) Parliament member, murderer Bikramjeet Kanwarpal (1968-2021) Actor A cruel but important question to us: Who's next? Chandro Tomar's sister Prakashi Tomar (b. 1937) is probably not vaccinated yet. Kumar Aiyappan Pillai (1914-2022) probably vaccinated Pratibha Patil (b. 1934) Probably vaccinated, as well as the former prime ministers. Philipose Chrysostom (1918-2021) Religious leader. Hospitalized on sunday for COVID symptoms but tested negative. If he won't catch covid, he'll probably die of something else this year. Or go on for another couple of years. Gowri Amma (1919-2021) recently survived covid but how long does she have? Randhir Kapoor (b. 1947) recently lost his sister Ritu Nanda (1948-2020) and brothers Rishi Kapoor (1952-2020) and Rajiv Kapoor (1962-2021). Currently in hospital with covid and is/was in ICU. and of course we're all afraid that Dilip Kumar (1922-2021) will catch the virus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gowri Amma has always been negative. TBF COVID in India is killing way more young people than these old bastards. One centenarian that did not take the vaccine is H. S. Doreswamy, as he reportedly "never leaves home". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathrace 1,171 Posted May 23, 2021 According to Kate Garraway in her latest update, Derek Draper is unable to move and struggles to communicate. Wasn't a massive Draper fan before this but you wouldn't wish what has happened to him on your worst enemy and I thought their documentary was very touching. Hope he recovers but it's going to be a long road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,654 Posted May 28, 2021 Times obituary for Freda Hodgson, aged 107, who was noted as being one of the oldest people in the UK to survive COVID-19 back in May. Ran a tea room in Rhodesia back in the day and once cooked for the Queen. Also the only person of the aristocracy to have ever been listed on the "Oldest in Britain" website (which tracks people aged 107+ in the UK). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,957 Posted May 29, 2021 Some updates on COVID-struck Indians, before the virus disappears from the face of the world: Bhuddadeb Bhattacharya is stable. Given how advanced his COPD is, I'd say he is utterly fucked. Mlkha Singh is stable and expected to be discharged within days, but his wife (Nirmal Kaur)'s conditions has slightly deteriorated. Despite them downplaying the situation, Milkha was critical when first admitted to ICU and required heavy oxygen flow. He is still on oxygen. Don't think he will die, but he was quite a guaranteed to see 100 before this, now I have many doubts about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
