    Jay Battacharya on the 1898 Indian Plague Commission:

    82 year old woman is harder to kill

    Woman, 95, Tasered by officer at Cooma aged care home, approached on walking frame with a knife, police say

    Australian cops continue to show us who they are. The old lady is apparently unlikely to make it.
