Events

January
  • January 10 - A mass poisoning at a funeral in Mozambique involves beer that was deliberately contaminated with crocodile bile leaving at least 56 dead and 146 hospitalized.[1]
  • January 12 - The death toll from the poisoned beer rises to at least 69, with 169 in hospital.[2] Reports also question whether the poison involved was actually crocodile bile; several studies have indicated that the substance is relatively harmless. The competing theory is that the actual poison may have been cardiac glycosides found in local plants.[3]
  • January 13 - The death toll from contaminated beer in the Mozambique rises to at least 72.[4]
gollark: This is a values problem, not an economic system one.
gollark: The expected value of demanding for communism appears substantially lower than that of actually helping people with malaria.
gollark: Yet they do not do this, and instead ineffectually demand communism which would totally make everything great and wonderful.
gollark: Consider: the people complaining about wanting communism could probably work in a well-paying job, obtain money, and donate it to effective charities like the Against Malaria Foundation.
gollark: Capitalism seems to be doing a fairly okay job of satisfying the values of, well, people in places with more resources, and apparently most people's values don't actually involve helping people they don't directly interact with because humans are bad.
