0 Thank you Feebs11, but I think in (a)" 01 b 00 had died 02 b 00 " should be used instead of" 01 b 00 have died 02 b 00 ". It is like (c). 02 br

00 As of Monday = until Monday. Monday is a point of time in the past 02 br
02 br
00 As of March 2008 = until March 2008 . March 2008 is a point of time in the past too. 02 br

01 b 00 "As of 02 b 00 "basically means 01 b 00 up to,on or from 02 b 00 (a specified time). 02 br

00 a/ 01 b 00 As of/By Monday 02 b 00 (= up to Monday ;today is supposed to be Wednesday )1500 people 01 b
