Update on newspaper article

[yakalskovich]

Remember the rabid dead man who was alive, yesterday? I managed to get hold of the newspaper in question, and the front page article in its entirety reads as follows:

General Hospital, Großhadern:
Man Who Died From Rabies Is Alive
Incredible Misinformation! Doctors Quarrel About Diagnosis

(Munich) On Thursday last week, he had been declared dead: a 60-year-old develoment aid worker who had allegedly been infected with rabies while in India. Now follows the incredible disclaimer: the man is alive and in intensive care in the Großhadern general hospital. And it's not even certain whether it is rabies he's suffering from: see p. 15

Awww, that seems kind of a cop-out, what with the not actually being dead and all.

Yes, it is a bit disappoiting, but I promised a follow-up. So here it is.

I do like the general vagueness and dilatoriness of it all, though. He's not dead, and it probably isn't rabies, either. But they do seem to know that they exist and that they are supposed to be a hospital. On Roundworld. That is something.
