Dead Pool 2025

Why are all these personal details made public by the authorities? It's none of anyone's business. I get that dead people don't have privacy rights, but there's also no reason to do it other than entertaining the public's morbid fascination.

Gotta stop the conspiracies with transparency.

THat's just what They want you to believe.  But unlike the ignorant masses of sheep I know better.

Two reasons.  One, it alerts the public to a health concern about the virus being present in that area.  Second, there was some suspicion of foul play, which is now answered in the negative.

Certainly. But a 'natural causes, no virus' would have sufficed. We don't need to know when they checked their email, what medication they were taking or which parts of the bodies were decomposed and to what extent.

Well on Sunday by brother had to pull the body of his father-in-law out of their lake. He's was found floating face down in the water after being absent for a couple of hours.
Presumably the coroner will determine if it was a heart attack/ stroke etc.

Grim for my brother and his family, and a reminder of just how fleeting life is, even when it's not a celebrity.

That's terrible for him.
But got to ask as it stands out - THEIR lake?

Nothing grand, he just made some small lakes for fishing on in some not very useful land on his small farm.

That's awful

I'm sorry, mongers

He was not someone I knew much, just sad for his daughter and family.

But it's no worse than being hit by a car/bus/tram whilst crossing the road.
