Concerts often last three hours or more. The rock phenomenon from the United States used to have a reputation for surprising his listeners by not adhering to the so-called setlist, the order of songs that artists play for an audience. “He would tear it up and then you just had to wait and see what he was going to play. For fans and people who have seen him before, those kinds of performances are of course great.”

Schuurmans conducted research among almost 450 general practitioners and geriatric physicians. This shows that there is a great willingness among doctors to practice euthanasia, except for people with dementia. Doctors doubt the value of a previously drawn up advance directive. They also have difficulty assessing unbearable suffering, a requirement for euthanasia. Even if someone has said beforehand: “If I no longer recognize my loved ones, that is unbearable suffering.”

But it is also a question that has occupied people for decades: Why does that mosquito always choose you and not the one who is snoring nicely next to you, less than twenty centimeters away? Hol: “You would say that we have known that for a long time, but that is not the case. There is a lot of research into what attracts mosquitoes, but not about that difference between people.”

Singers Bennie Solo and Ronnie Ruysdaal are also enthusiastic about the new 4daagse song. “Bruls is welcome during pink Wednesday on Hertogplein,” says Solo. According to the Nijmegen native, that is the ideal place to play the song live for the first time. “Thousands of people are then present around 4 p.m. the runners too.”

One in five adults smokes
The most recent figures from the Trimbos Institute (2021) show that one in five Dutch people aged 18 and older smoked in 2021. That is 20.6 percent of the adult population. There has been a significant decrease in recent years, as in 2014 25.7 percent of adults still smoked.
Trimbos says that by 2021, 30.9 percent of smokers made a serious effort to quit. Most smokers need several attempts to quit permanently.
So more and more people are quitting smoking. But that does not apply to people with a lower level of education, says Pharos. Half of men aged 25-45 with a lower education smoke. Tobacco addiction contributes about 30 percent to the difference in life expectancy between low and high educated people.
