Would natural immunity have saved him?

Being fully vaccinated didn't save him.

Here are the headlines this morning from the first 10 stories linked in Google News to Colin Powell:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CNN - Colin Powell, military leader and first Black US secretary of state, dies after complications from Covid-19

Fox News - Colin Powell, former secretary of state, dead at 84 from COVID-19 complications

NBC News - Former Secretary of State Colin Powell dies from Covid complications

The Hill - Colin Powell dead at 84 from COVID-19 complications

USA Today - Colin Powell dies of complications from the coronavirus: Latest COVID-19 updates

Yahoo News - Former Secretary of State Colin Powell dies from Covid complications

The New York Times - Colin Powell Dies at 84 From Covid-19 Complications

CNBC - Colin Powell, former secretary of State who made case for Iraq investigation, dies of Covid complications at 84

AP News - Colin Powell has died of COVID-19 complications, family says

The Daily Beast - Colin Powell Has Died From Covid
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What do they all have in common? 10 out of 10 mention cause of death. Not one mentions his vaccination status.

Yet, when a famous UNVACCINATED person dies from Covid, that is ALWAYS the focal point of the headline.

Just an observation.

This sounds like a conspiracy tbh...

Now, if he would have never been vaccinated and just let NaTuRaL ImMuNiTy occur, would he be alive today?

How about we quit baiting the covid anti vaxxers. It is tiring, they feel how they feel and nothing will change their minds. I doubt even lying in a covid ward hooked to a vent would change their minds. It is a fruitless exercise at this point.

It's difficult to say whether he would have survived with natural immunity, because he was vaccinated.

People who diss natural immunity have a fundamental ignorance of Immunology and Microbiology. Early on in the crisis, Fauci and Company talked a LOT about NATURAL HERD IMMUNITY, that when enough people have the disease and recover, the epidemic will subside.

What is different here? The elections in 2022 and 2024 are closely tied to Fauci's Disease. It's all been politicized. Now it's on Biden's Watch, and Biden Is severely compromised. The Democrats plan to cheat to win the elections, but it's going to be harder and harder to hide the cheating. It's not like stuffing the Student Council ballot box, like the people on this board likely tried. I think even a high school principal would order a new Student Council election under the circumstances we've seen. A high school principal, though no Einstein, would see that 10000 votes in a school with 1000 students would be, as Jesse Duke might say, "a half a bubble off plumb", and order a new, closely supervised (by adults, not the people in the TCF counting center) election.

And still, no one will hold China, or Fauci, accountable, except "Alternative News" sites that you condemn.

How about you use the ignore button rather than backseat modding and demanding that people not talk about what you want them to talk about. When you go off whining about presidents and how you want to "smack the shit out of them" and all that other disgusting bullshit you get up to I don't tell you to shut up because watching an idiot make a fool of themselves amuses me. If you don't like what people have to say, rather than whine about it, just push a button and you don't have to see it.

The idiocy of the anti-vaxxers knows no bounds.


What's more pathetic: harassing an old man who is paying to do a radio show or supporting a grifter like Trump?

Just put him on your block list like I did. He must have been dropped on his head as a child or something because no normal human being I know is THAT much of a dick to everybody, all of the time.

99% of the people you label as such are not anti-vax, they are anti Trump's Operation Warp Speed, experimental at best, vaccines. There's a reason it normally takes ten years to get a vaccine approved. No Republican or Democrat, with the exception of Dr. Rand Paul, can possibly fully understand that.

It would be interesting to know when and what type of vaccination he had.

Anyone know? Bueller?

I agree with Zzand, he was mostly reasonable public servant. RIP.
