Colin Powell was vaccinated against Covid, but suffered from a cancer that makes the shots less effective
CNBC ^ | Oct 18, 2021 | Berkeley Lovelace Jr

Colin Powell, 84, died Monday morning due to complications from Covid-19.

Powell was fully vaccinated against the virus, his family said in a statement.

Powell was elderly, a known risk for severe Covid, and suffered from multiple myeloma, a blood cancer that studies show can make the shots less effective.

A study published in late July found that only 45% of patients with active multiple myeloma developed an "adequate" immune response after getting vaccinated with either the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccines.

Just 22% of patients in the study had a "partial" response....

Offit said fully vaccinated people with weak immune systems should also continue to wear masks and social distance indoors.

I did a search on myeloma on vaers under symptoms and got 34 reports, FYI. Not all of them but it’s definitely there.

Do your own research, nothing will convince you anyway.

My cancer doc, and nurse both advised me in March to not get it because it interferes with my treatment. It stops or messes with what they are trying to do with the treatment. It was suspected that the working treatment may have an adverse reaction to the vax. It was cdc guidance back then, but not sure if it’s still a thing.

Just personal experience.

Exactly.

These are lazy FR VPs....no....sorry, I shouldn’t say that.

I meant lazy, DRIVE BY, FR VPs.

Won’t to their own refuting research posts, and just drive by with their attacks.

No sale, Furry.

Good for your doc.

The cancer docs, in our area, are pushing hard for these experimental, risky shots. :-(

Thanks for the comments!

Your comments are what I would have expected. They vaccines could interfere with testament.

That’s different than some of the jackassin’ that other FReepers on this thread have done - by saying that the vaccination has caused cancer or made cancers worse.

A pathetic attempt to hide the inefficacy of the vaccine. The man was 84. Stepping off a curb the wrong way could have taken the man out. Good grief

I know the hospital did.

I am not a “science denier.” I would just like to know what the science actually is.

Can’t depend on Fauci for the details.

LOL! It’s not a personal attack or swipe. Are you saying that because you can’t go unchallenged on some of the claims you make.

And I’m not a drive-by poster. I’m right here. Boo! ;)

Okay, I’m sorry!

My sister and I grew up in suburban Chicago, and she dated the last young man that John Wayne Gacy killed in a brutal fashion.At th

JWG, yeah, I will speak ill of him.

But not of someone who tried his best to serve his country. I realize now that my opinion is apparently not popular, but that’s just how I feel. Sorry.

At that time, people were operating on the best intel they had, as they always do, and sometimes it’s wrong.

So much cancer therapy is immunotherapy these days I would recommend. cancer patients listen to no one but their oncologist on any vaccine or any other therapy that touches the immune system. Bless you and I wish you good health and a full recovery

“So it’s OK to blame deaths on covid despite underlining conditions, but these conditions need to be considered if the patient was fully vaccinated.”

Apparently all deaths today are because of Covid. Even if they’d had a heart attack, a stroke, liver or kidney failure, a sepsis infection like Bill Clinton had and apparently recovered from...because the hospitals get more money from the feds, I believe, if it’s Covid-related.

I have a family member who is fighting cancer and she was flat out told NOT to get the shot.
