Cuba's communist government provided no new information on Fidel Castro's condition Thursday but sought to reassure Cubans that nothing would change.
"The revolution will continue" was the mantra chanted on state-run television and displayed in government newspapers three days after Fidel Castro temporarily ceded power to his younger brother Raul while recovering from surgery.

I think reports such as these reinforce the notion that he died.

This just in: Generalissimo Francisco Franco's doctors refuse to comment on rumors that the Spanish dictator has been dead since 1975.

He's going to be on his heroin drip for several days. Even if they talked to him he might not make a lot of sense.

I think he is dead.
All indications were that if he died, they would hide it from the public for the first 48 to 72 hours or so. No video or photos, just phony statements issued in his name, until they realize they have their ducks in a line for the succession. When the tanks start moving, they are solidifying their position to pre-empt disorder and riots.
