Bad Month for the Oldest Living Person

It's been a series of deaths for the person named "World's Oldest Person" this month. Perhaps a title one should avoid lest whatever plague (or possible... person?) has taken the lives of our most senior of citizens. Perhaps it is some kind of government consipiracy. Or maybe even a serial killer. I think it's obvious what these people have in common. Look out Yone Minagawa of Fukuoka, Japan.

World's oldest woman dies at 115 Jan 19, 2007
World's oldest known person dies at 115 Jan 24, 2007
World's oldest person dies at 114 Jan 29, 2007

And while I can't find a news source for it (other than those citing her as the previous record holder), "Elizabeth Bolden" died in December. She was the world's oldest person before ANY of these people could claim the title.
