018 — Died Suddenly [PAB]
Cette semaine on se demande ce qu’est exactement “#diedsuddenly”, qu’on voit régulièrement sur Twitter. On parle aussi des Russes qui disparaissent dans des circonstances mystérieuses et improbables et des urgences qui débordent en Angleterre. Aussi: les annonceurs reviennent chez Twitter et de la surveillance extra-territoriale Chinoise. Enfin, on a enfin de la clarté sur les dates d’expirations des aliments, on parle des entrevues d’emploi qui en finissent plus et on parle, encore une fois, d’Alec Baldwin. Conclusion: vaut mieux ne pas parler avec la police.

[30:00] Sudden Russian Death Syndrome
Here is a list of people you should not currently want to be: a Russian sausage tycoon, a Russian gas-industry executive, the editor in chief of a Russian tabloid, a Russian shipyard director, the head of a Russian ski resort, a Russian aviation official, or a Russian rail magnate. Anyone answering to such a description probably ought not stand near open windows, in almost any country, on almost every continent.

[39:00] Santé: Britain’s Cautionary Tale of Self-Destruction
In December, as many as 500 patients per week were dying in Britain because of E.R. waits, according to the Royal College of Emergency Medicine, a figure rivaling (and perhaps surpassing) the death toll from Covid-19. On average, English ambulances were taking an hour and a half to respond to stroke and heart-attack calls, compared with a target time of 18 minutes; nationwide, 10 times as many patients spent more than four hours waiting in emergency rooms as did in 2011. The waiting list for scheduled treatments recently passed seven million — more than 10 percent of the country — prompting nurses to strike. The National Health Service has been in crisis for years, but over the holidays, as wait times spiked, the crisis moved to the very center of a narrative of national decline.
