John Alfred Tinniswood, World’s Oldest Man, Dies at 112
John Alfred Tinniswood, celebrated as the world’s oldest man, passed away peacefully at the age of 112 on Monday in a Southport care home. A devoted Liverpool FC supporter, Mr. Tinniswood gained the title of the world’s oldest man in April 2024, following the death of Juan Vicente Pérez Mora.
Born on August 26, 1912—the year the Titanic sank—Mr. Tinniswood was acknowledged as the UK’s oldest man in 2020 and earned global recognition this year from the Guinness Book of Records.
A widower, he is survived by his daughter Susan, grandchildren Annouchka, Marisa, Toby, and Rupert, and great-grandchildren Tabitha, Callum, and Nieve. His family remembered him as wise, courageous, and eloquent, traits he displayed during his service in World War II with the Royal Army Pay Corps, where he oversaw logistics and accounts.
In 1942, he married his wife Blodwen, with whom he shared 44 cherished years until her death in 1986. After the war, Mr. Tinniswood pursued a career with Royal Mail and later as an accountant for Shell and BP, retiring in 1972. He remained active in retirement, serving as a church elder and delivering sermons at Blundellsands United Reform Church. His family shared that he passed “surrounded by music and love.”

A deep depression located in the southwest Bay of Bengal and adjacent areas is moving further north-northwestwards. If the deep depression develops into a cyclone, it will be named Fengal. It may cross the north Tamil Nadu coast by Saturday (November 30) morning.
This information was revealed in the special weather bulletin (serial number 08) on Friday (November 29).
The Meteorological Department said that a deep depression located in the southwest Bay of Bengal and adjacent areas is moving further north-northwestwards and is located in the same area (10.5° north latitude and 82.6° east longitude).

The maximum sustained wind speed within 48 km of the center of the deep depression is 50 kmph, increasing to 60 kmph in gusts or squalls. The sea is rough in the area near the deep depression.
The seaports of Chattogram, Cox's Bazar, Mongla, and Payra have been asked to hoist distant warning signal number 1. All fishing boats and trawlers in the north Bay of Bengal and deep sea have been asked to proceed with caution near the coast until further notice.

Dengue Claims 47 Lives in A Week
The dengue outbreak in the country is not decreasing in any way. Along with the deaths, the number of infected people is also increasing. The pressure of patients in hospitals increasing.
According to the dengue report of the Department of Health, 47 have died of dengue this week (November 23 to November 29) and 5,968 have been admitted to hospitals.
According to the statistics of the last seven days,

Atiqur Rahman, a specialized doctor at DMCH said that dengue is no longer seasonal, it occurs throughout the year. It increases when it starts raining. In addition to using mosquito repellents to prevent dengue, the city corporation must also conduct campaigns everywhere. At the same time, everyone must be aware of it.
Entomologist Dr Manjur Chowdhury says that not only public awareness will work to control mosquitoes. Appropriate measures must be taken by conducting proper surveys and using skilled manpower.
It is worth noting that in 2023, the highest number of dengue patients in the country's history was 3,21,179, and 1,705 people died.
Cyclone Fengal Moves Northwestwards Over Bay
Cyclone Fengal, which is located in the southwest Bay of Bengal and its vicinity, is gradually moving northwestwards.
The maximum sustained wind speed within 54 km of the cyclone center is 62 km/h, which is increasing to 88 km/h in gusts or squalls. The weather forecast says that the cyclone will hit the Tamil Nadu coast of India by midday today (November 30).
Meanwhile, the cyclone's impact is also being observed in the country's maritime region. The sea is very rough in the area near the cyclone center. As a result, maritime ports in Bangladesh have been instructed to keep distant warning signal number two hoisted as Cyclonic Storm Fengal intensifies over the Southwest Bay of Bengal.
This information was given in a special notice issued by meteorologist Md. Omar Faruk on Saturday (November 30).
According to a special bulletin from the Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD), as of 6 am today (30 November), Fengal was positioned approximately-
1,650 kilometres southwest of Chattogram port,
1,605 kilometres southwest of Cox's Bazar port,
1,505 kilometres southwest of Mongla port, and
1,515 kilometres southwest of Payra port.
The storm, which has sustained winds of around 62 km/h near its centre, with gusts reaching up to 88 km/h, is moving in a north-westerly direction.
In this situation, all fishing boats and trawlers in the North Bay of Bengal and deep sea have been asked to move with caution near the coast until further notice.
Meanwhile, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has said in its latest update that Cyclone Fengal will cross the Tamil Nadu-Puducherry coast. During its passage, the wind speed will be 70 to 80 km/h in and around Karaikal and Mahabalipuram, which may exceed 90 km/h with gusts.
Bangladesh Reports Highest AIDS-Affected Patients This Year
In the last year, 195 people have died of AIDS in the country. This year, 1,438 people have been newly infected with AIDS. This is the highest number of AIDS cases since the first HIV (AIDS virus) positive case was identified in Bangladesh in 1989. Of these, 55 percent are married.
This information was obtained from the National Tuberculosis, Leprosy, and AIDS Control Program (TB-L & ASP) of the Department of Health.
Today is December 1, World AIDS Day. On this occasion, the Department of Health will present various statistics related to AIDS in the country. The theme of this year's World AIDS Day is 'If rights are ensured, HIV/AIDS will go away'.
Thoughts on young people and two risk groups
This year, 63 percent of the newly infected people are between 25 to 49 years old. 21 percent are between 20 to 24 years old. Last year, 16 percent of young people were between 19 to 24 years old.
Among patients, 10 percent of the total infected people are Rohingya. Last year, the rate was 12 percent. Transgender people account for 1 percent of the total infections. Last year too, the infection rate among them was similar.
These three groups, including homosexuals, female sex workers, and intravenous drug users, are also considered vulnerable to HIV.
Dr Md. Mahfuzar Rahman Sarkar, Line Director of TB-L & ASP at the Directorate General of Health Services, said, "Globally, the younger population is considered vulnerable to HIV. We are no exception here. And while living in Myanmar, HIV infection was relatively high among the Rohingya. Testing has increased among Rohingya and transgender people than before. Therefore, more are being identified."
Dr Saima Khan, Country Director for Bangladesh at UNAIDS, said, the scope of identifying and providing services to HIV-infected people has increased. However, campaigning can be increased to prevent the increase in infections among the young generation. More awareness topics need to be added to the curriculum on this issue.
Infection is more common among married people, fear of death
Of those infected with AIDS this year, 55 percent are married. 40 percent are single. 5 percent are widowed or divorced.
Last year, the infection rate among married people was 60 percent. Among single people, it was 31 percent. Like last year, this year too, the Dhaka division has the highest number of HIV infections.
Last year, the number of deaths due to HIV was 266. This year, the number is 195. Although the number of deaths has decreased, it is still at an alarming level, says Nazrul Islam, former vice-chancellor of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU). This virologist said that the HIV treatment system is now quite advanced. The cause of death may be that the infected people are not taking regular and proper treatment. Again, it is necessary to pay attention to whether the drugs being given are becoming resistant or not.
