Shari Villarosa, the charge d'affaires in the Myanmar capital, said on Thursday in a conference call that ''there may well be over 100,000 deaths in the delta area,'' citing an international non-governmental organisation she would not name. ''It is an estimate of what deaths may actually reach, primarily in the delta area,'' the country's key rice-growing region where around five or six million people live, Villarosa told reporters in Washington. She also said ''95 per cent of the buildings have disappeared'' in the delta area, citing a Myanmar government source. In the capital of Yangon, Villarosa said, ''the government cites figures of around six or seven hundred deaths.'' She said Yangon suffered mainly storm damage, with roofs ripped off buildings and electricity and water cut off. Some water has been restored and many homes depend on pumps.

It is incorrect to say that a man will deliver a baby. Biologically man cannot have womb. He cannot have other female biological functions to conceive a baby. Just because a woman 'thinks' she is a man and takes male hormones to have manly voice and beard etc, does not transform herself to a man. Similarly if man surgically or otherwise transforms himself to a woman, he has not become a woman. He will not be able to conceive and deliver a child, because he does not have a womb and other female reproductive functions. Thomas Beatie is nothing but a woman.
