Official: Prince Philip is Dead, 9th April 2021

And it doesn’t necessarily lengthen a 99 year olds life.

Not necessarily, but the average 99 year old male has a life expectancy of 2 years. It's a fair bet that a healthy 99 year old would see some longevity benefit (but more importantly a QoL benefit). I suspect the stent is to help get him strong enough to survive something else, though.
 
Some people posting on the last two pages of this thread, seem to be assuming that Phil once-a-Greek has had a stent fitted at Barts ... :hmm:

Those persons should try reading the BBC story that Badgers linled to, a bit more carefully ...

BBC said:
In 2011, Prince Philip was taken to hospital by helicopter from Sandringham after suffering chest pains as the royal family was preparing for Christmas.

He was treated for a blocked coronary artery at Papworth Hospital in Cambridgeshire and had a stent fitted.

:rolleyes:

I don't think it would be unusual for a patient with heart disease to have a second stent fitted or a decade-old one replaced - some people have more than a dozen.

OK, fair point :oops: .. and I had no idea about a dozen stents being possible! :eek:

But is there any actual evidence that he's just had another stent at Barts?:confused:

That BBC article that I linked to, doesn't specify ... I'll recheck whem I can be arsed :p, though.
 
sure there've been killers who've killed on both sides of a frontier, you reveal your limited thinking here.

I don’t understand your point.

That whole “you reveal your...” nonsense is the sort of blame-shifting, bully-boy shite I called you out over in a previous post.

“...your limited thinking” — are you trying to say that when people say the word “borderline” in this country that they literally mean “the line that divides two geographical frontiers”? And that somehow demonstrates MY limited thinking?
