Colin Powell Dies of COVID

Since this appears to be yet another of the thousand threads arguing over COVID vaccine efficacy, it's prudent to point out that Powell was immunocompromised as well as being mid-80s:

"Powell had multiple myeloma, according to NBC News. It is a type of blood cancer that hurts the body’s ability to fight infections."

Yes.

And it's ridiculous.

This massive vaccinating of the kids took off once Big Pharma got legal liability shield in the 1980s and coincides with the massive increases in things like autism and kids having deadly reactions to things like peanuts.

Need to learn about correlation and causation?

You do realize that you cannot have causation without correlation?

And given the extreme correlation between the explosion of vaccines and of autism and these other deadly allergies that never existed before, the correlation is not causation argument holds very little water.

And he had Parkinsons. Sad loss.

And he had had prostate cancer and gone through all those treatments 20 years earlier.

The double jab did not help him

It's not vaccines that cause autism - it's organic food. My evidence? "extreme correlation". Undeniable. :-D

84 years old, multiple bouts of cancer, but obviously it was COVID that killed him?

When and in what way do we begin punishing China for this Wuhan virus?

When and in what way do we begin to punish Mr. Fauci for his perpetual stream of lies and mis-truths spoken with such surety? And for his decisions to fund GOF research in Wuhan?

Fauci is a scumbag. Don't let the media and his grandpa vibe try to convince you otherwise.

You need to not cut off the the years 1986-1996 on your chart.

The relationship between the proportion of children who received the recommended vaccines by age 2 years and the prevalence of autism (AUT) or speech or language impairment (SLI) in each U.S. state from 2001 and 2007 was determined. A positive and statistically significant relationship was found: The higher the proportion of children receiving recommended vaccinations, the higher the prevalence of AUT or SLI. These results suggest that there may be a link of vaccines to autism.

In "Hepatitis B Vaccination of Male Neonates and Autism Diagnosis," published in the November 2010 issue, pages 1665-1677 in the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part A, researchers have found an association between hepatitis B vaccination of male neonates and parental reports of autism.

This research included a study among boys age 3-17 years, born before 1999, who were vaccinated for hepatitis B as neonates. Boys vaccinated as neonates had threefold greater odds for autism diagnosis compared to boys never vaccinated or vaccinated after the first month of life.

Between Aug. 26 and 27, 2020, quietly and without fanfare, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) removed the heading “Vaccines Do Not Cause Autism” from the top of their vaccine safety webpage.

Apparently, yes.

Strangely enough, there are these "doctor" people who, through a combination of education, training, and experience are able to make such determinations with a pretty good, though not perfect, level of accuracy.

Powell had successfully battled blood cancer, but was immunocompromised due to the treatment. The immunocompromised are especially vulnerable to COVID and do not receive that much protection from the vaccine. So, when you sit upon your high horse talking about "medical freedom" and analogize mask mandates to Nazis requiring Jews to wear armbands, what you are really doing is condemning people who are vulnerable to COVID to a life of living in virtual isolation and a high probability of dying on a ventilator because you are letting the virus spread far and wide just to make a political point.

Is there a reliable news source further dissecting cause of death? Covid complications sure, but did he have other conditions? Just trying to understand if he happened to be one of the rare case of severe covid despite vaccination, or his immunity waned over time, or what? Are older vaccinated folks more vulnerable to severe covid?

More "political points" about the experiment:

J&J "protection" falls from 88% to 3% in 6 months.

Fauci says "feel good" about J&J booster because it should have been 2 shots from the start.

So Pfizer bills the US government a few hundred dollars for Powell's vaccine that demonstrably did absolutely nothing for him?

Yeah, that makes sense. Government money is all free money to liberals anyway.

It just makes me very happy that this war criminal is now suffering for eternity in the fires of HELL. Powell, W and EVERY person working in that evil administration deserves what they will get in HELL. I am only sorry that they aren't in prison before they go to HELL.

A person who is immunocompromised should not be interacting with people who are not wearing at least a N95 and well-trained to use them. This requires a "life of virtual isolation", regardless of covid.

Quarantine the vulnerable while keeping the healthy functioning to full freedom and capacity. That has been the operating guideline of all pandemics successfully weathered in the past. Masking and restricting the healthy is only a recent political ploy of virtue signaling and brainwashing, which is your forte.
