A holidaymaker dies during a waterskiing trip on Lac des Settons
August 1, 2022
A 46-year-old man died on Wednesday July 27 in Moux-en-Morvan, on Lac des Settons, while he was out water skiing with his family. The family outing turned tragic. A father, a mother and their 18-year-old daughter, from the Paris region, were on board their boat on Lac des Settons, Wednesday July 27, around 7 p.m., for a water skiing session. Madame leads the boat, while her husband puts on the skis and their 16-year-old daughter films the scene. Only, the man, 46 years old, falls, and does not get up. He is lifeless, in cardio-respiratory arrest.
Seeing this, her daughter immediately dives into the water, removes her skis while her mother calls for help. With the help of paddlists, the young girl manages to bring her father back to the banks, and gives him first aid. While waiting for the firefighters, she performs cardiac massage, and people present on the spot find an emergency defibrillator.
The gendarmes of the Montsauche-les-Settons brigade help the firefighters to get to them, try to resuscitate the victim, while the Smur d'Avallon is on the way, and a doctor from the Dijon University Hospital already in a helicopter to help. Despite this important device, the father of the family was declared dead shortly before 8:30 p.m.
Warned, Paul-Edouard Lallois, magistrate on duty, decided not to order investigations, because the origin of the death is unfortunately not in doubt. Especially with the video of the scene which was filmed and viewed by the gendarmes.
As for knowing the origin of this cardiac arrest, several hypotheses can be considered: predisposition, hydrocution... “There is no ambiguity about the cause of this tragic death. The priority was therefore to be able to return the body as quickly as possible to the family, so that they could grieve and return home as quickly as possible to prepare the funeral,” says the deputy prosecutor.

A Dutch tourist dies while wakeboarding
July 29, 2022
Pisogne, Italy - A 52-year-old Dutch tourist died yesterday in hospital in Brescia after having remained underwater for a long time in the Sebino between Pisogne, Costa Volpino and Lovere. The man, Patrick Van Dijk, yesterday afternoon was practicing wakeboarding, a water sport including water skiing and snowboarding, pulled by a motorboat on which there were his wife and some friends.
Suddenly, due to causes under investigation, the Dutch tourist, who was staying with his family in a campsite in Marone, sank and remained underwater for several minutes.
His companions recovered him by dragging him on board, and transported him, unconscious, in cardiac arrest, to the structures of Porto Goen, on the Pisogne lakefront. After using the semiautomatic defibrillator available in the bar of the nearby tennis court, the tourist was urgently transferred to the Spedali Civili of Brescia by air ambulance. In the evening the doctors had to ascertain his death.
The carabinieri of the Pisogne station are now investigating the fact. But all the factors point to the so-called hydrocution syndrome, a violent stimulation due to the temperature difference between the external temperature and that of the water, which lowers the heart rate and blood pressure. In some cases it can lead to loss of consciousness. On Lake Garda, in the last month, there have been six cases of death due to the same reason.
No cause of death reported (only speculation).

He died in Germany: now go home
July 29, 2022
The last farewell will be paid to him in his native land, his Cava de 'Tirreni, tomorrow at 4.30 pm inside the church of San Pietro a Siepi. The cinerary urn of the 33-year-old from Cavese Antonio Tremonte is about to arrive in Italy, after his sudden death which, according to the evidence of the medico-legal reports carried out beyond the national borders, dates back to 11 July last.
The young man, father of two children, was found lifeless in Germany, in the house he shared with another friend from Cavese. He had been on German soil for more or less ten years: in Germany he worked in the field of food and beverage administration.
The 33-year-old from San Pietro a Siepi, a hamlet of Cava de 'Tirreni, had been dead for about three days, but only his owner had triggered the alarm. The "boss" had not seen him show up for work for two days in a row, among other things without any notice of absence: unusual for someone like Antonio.
Hence the owner had decided to alert a friend who first noticed the car under the house and then the sad discovery within the four walls of the home. In the room next to him, the friend he didn't meet often lay lifeless due to different working hours.
Immediately after the discovery, the young man's body was sequestered to make room for investigations and, consequently, for an autopsy. Antonio's death occurred due to an illness. A sudden illness had crushed the young man, who had had a far from easy childhood due to the premature loss of his mother.
No cause of death reported.

Study: After the third dose in the first six months of 2022 strokes doubled compared to 2021. Children also affected
July 30, 2022
The " Centro Andaluz de Teleictus" (CATI), which monitors and coordinates assistance throughout Andalusia, the large automaton region on the southern coast of Spain with eight and a half million inhabitants, has released the latest data on strokes, doubled in the first six months of 2022, coinciding with the massive administration of the third dose.
The telematic platform, managed by the doctors of the “Virgen Macarena” university hospital in Seville, detected more than a thousand cases in the first six months of 2022, a number of cases that had instead been reached in 2021 in a double period, twelve months.
Stroke, according to the reported data, is now a rapidly increasing disease and is already the first cause of death in women and the second in men. It is also the leading cause of acquired disability in adults and the second leading cause of dementia, after Alzheimer's.
The latest figures from the Andalusian center are shocking. Stroke no longer predominantly affects the elderly, but also occurs in children and has become the number one cause of brain damage in this population group. Every year, more than 18,000 Andalusian citizens are affected by strokes, of which half are estimated to remain permanently damaged or die.
This high figure could double in 2022 if the rate of strokes diagnosed so far this year at the Andalusian Center (CATI) is maintained, as confirmed by the neurologist at Virgen Macarena Hospital, Ana Barragán, one of the managers of this center, who managed to to reduce, thanks to the coordinated action of primary care centers and hospitals, mortality and disability due to this disease.
The CATI Center treated about four thousand patients in its four long years of life, about a thousand patients per year, equal to the number of cases they received in the first six months of 2022.
“We don't know exactly what is due to this increase in stroke cases so far this year,” says this neurologist. There is no scientific evidence that Covid has anything to do with this increase, although some studies point to neurological damage.

Wow.
So sad right now.
That TV woman, Mónica Domínguez, was my age. Lots of people of my generation show up in the news. I think there is much greater mortality in Spain than reported. Everything is an official lie in this country. Surely is the same story everywhere.
There also many turbo-cancers. All jabbed. I was never a threat to their health or their life. They had blind faith on evil people who poisoned them. Blood boiling AF.
Gonna chill a little.
