In addition to being 84, Powell had multiple myeloma and was thus severely immunocompromised. He was high risk even with the vaccine. If you have ever known anyone who is immunocompromised, you know that even minor infections can become very big deals.

Solid logic
Are there any brain cells left in there, Unkle?

Well, he had Multiple Myeloma which is a b!tch of a cancer to get. He was seriously compromised to the point that a bad cold could have killed him. So, YES, he did die of COVID, but in all fairness (and I am ALWAYS fair), his death is NOT an example to hold up that shows how deadly COVID is.

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.
You found one scientist from Stony Brook University (where?) who can corroborate your crackpot views?
Do you need me to google the scientific consensus for you?
He didn't die because he was vaccinated. He died because you weren't.
He was a Republican, who was best friends with John McCain, but when McCain ran for President Powell shocked the World by By voting and giving his endorsement to Obama, Also Powell was running for President, but he withdrew because the Media found out his wife had been in a Mental Hospitals decades earlier, as a General he Won a total of ZERO wars.

actually that is true, fash.
But you can have correlation without causation, which is the point. That's why there are things such as double-blind clinical trials, which can help to differentiate whether something is correlation or causation. The vaccine / autism link looks powerful in studies that only look at correlation; it does not hold water in studies that specifically look at causation.
By not getting vaccinated or taking care to avoid infecting people by social distancing and mask wearing, you continue to spread the virus throughout society and people who like Colin Powell are elderly and in poor health (he had multiple myeloma, cancer) will die at much greater rates despite vaccination. Vaccination will still help the elderly and sick by markedly reducing their chances of infection and death from COVID, but many more will die because of your selfishness. R.I.P. Colin Powell.

I fully understand the sentiment! But there actually is no "Hell." When you're dead, you're done--that's it. You learn/feel/experience nothing thereafter because you're, you know, dead: Your brain doesn't work (that's actually part of the definition of "dead"), and a working brain is necessary to do those things.

Always fair?
ABSOLUTELY INCORRECT!

Actually time slows down in the seconds leading to death, and literally the last few milliseconds of life extend out for eons, and that's where the hell fires are burning VERY HOT INDEED! What you perceive as a short time for the dying is actually there eternity of torture or reward respectively.

There's no evidence for anything of the kind, of course, but I admire the creativity shown here. Props.
Blood/bone marrow cancers carry substantially increased risk of death due to COVID post-vaccination from 1.5 fold to 4 fold depending on whether the individual has recently had chemotherapy. Would be good if people were actually well versed in the data and quoted citations rather than hand wave and spout the usual ill informed crap.

You are spreading misinformation and need to be silenced. To be extra extra safe all human need two covid shots every day for the rest of the lives. You are literally murdering people with your misinformation.

That is a fair statement.
I may be wrong but I believe there is an 80-year old age group in the Ironman. Definitely 70’s. It’s about fitness, not a sedentary life of pharmaceuticals. He would have been better off being a lean mean running machine than an overweight vaccinated man, in terms of getting and fighting Covid.
The message is wrong. Extreme fitness should be the goal. If you can walk you can run. Basically. So start running.

He had Parkinson’s Disease and and blood cancer (multiple Myeloma). He died WITH COVID not FROM COVID.
He had Parkinson's too on top of a blood cancer? LOL, yea he died with covid not of covid. Parkinson's carries a 2.2-fold increase risk of death from COVID post-vaccination. Then add the 1.4 fold increase in risk of death due to blood cancer and a 3.5-fold/4-fold increase risk of death if he was taking chemotherapy.
