Herman Cain dead after battle with coronavirus.
Fox News ^ | 7.30.2020 | Ronn Blitzer

Posted on 07/30/2020 7:49:20 AM PDT by Carriage Hill

Herman Cain, the former Republican presidential candidate and affable business magnate, died Thursday after being hospitalized for coronavirus, according to reports.

Cain, 74, first went to an Atlanta hospital for treatment on July 1, his staff had said.

His death was announced on Herman Cain's website and Facebook page.

"Herman Cain – our boss, our friend, like a father to so many of us – has passed away," the statement on his website said, noting there were "hopeful indicators" in recent days that he'd recover but adding: "And yet we also felt real concern about the fact that he never quite seemed to get to the point where the doctors could advance him to the recovery phase."

You can’t fight anarchists and terrorists by sending them milk.
We are long past that at the moment.
We are getting close to the point when the left wing terrorists are going to find out that the silent majority can and will hit back twice as hard.
November is not going to be a dinner party for the left, albeit they think it will.

Did he die “FROM” or “WITH” the COVID.

“We have been studying HCQ here at FR since March and I have been taking it since before you were born.
I know something about it from personal experience.
You will also note that what I said was, I have and will spend more time on this earth than you will. I stand by that.
Go back and read it.
Now why don’t you go back and join your Antifa pals eh?
Your fear porn is totally wasted here.”


I’ve prescribed and can prescribe HCQ, and earned that right through years of hard work and being humbled by learning how there are so many more questions than there are answers.

You are a layman, who seems to have all the answers.

Any death is sad and a tragedy, but I will save my tears for those who are blameless in the plague.

The blameless do not include people who make idiot statements about masks or deny disease, science and basic common sense.

Do all the tough talk you want about the virus.
See where it gets you.

Did those bastards withhold Hydroxychloroquine from him?

You'll probably have to ask his family to get the answer to that question.

Cain had been in remission from colon cancer since 2006, with indication it had relapsed. His body weight at Tulsa was very healthy, and colon cancer does not kill this quickly from healthy body weight without leading to noticeable weight loss first.

Stop spreading fake news.

Unless you were one of Herman Cain's health care providers or he added your name to the list of individuals who can access his health information, you have absolutely no idea whether what you are claiming is fact.

Stop spreading fake news.

Such a hateful reply. You will find a happy home in the Democrat party. China Joe is calling you home. Goodbye.

Its a good thing I don't have to come to some paid internet troll fake doctor for my HCQ then isn't it?
HCQ should be an over the counter drug here. Just like it's been in most sub Saharan African countries with very high incidence of malaria for over 60 years.

In an absence of evidence, the default is to assume it is negative. It has been reported Cain was admitted to hospital a month ago for respiratory issues. There have been no reports I am aware of yet that indicates he had a relapse of his cancer.

In that situation the news would be covid contributed to his death. Fake news would be to claim cancer killed him until based on internet speculation at this point.

No, there is not a bit of hate in my heart, lodi90.

This is cool dispassionate observation.

If you want to surrender to your emotions, that is your right.

It will just result in more death.

ANECDOTAL!

Reading between the lines (as only some of us have the special “museum” glasses)...

Trump KILLED him.
Kristi Noem is killing her constituents.
Masks prevent coronavirus
Trump rallies KILL PEOPLE.

How would I know the details of Mr. Cain’s hospital treatment? If you think that I am privy to that information, you’re even dumber than you sound.

I’m not totally opposed to HCQ being non-prescription. It certainly has its risks, but a whole bottle of Tylenol will also kill you.

I’m opposed to hyping HCQ as a miracle with no downsides. If every person over 80 with pre-existing heart conditions (which there are millions of) started taking them prophylactically, it will certainly cause deaths from QT prolongation. We warn people that a whole bottle of Tylenol will kill you. You have to have the same attitude with HCQ, which you do not seem to have.

“Or the vent.”

“...Cain died of complications of COVID-19....”

Yeah, the complication that they put him on the vent.

I have always said, doctors are like auto mechanics, there aren’t very many good ones.

Let’s cut off his leg.
He isn’t improving.
Let’s cut off his other leg.
He still isn’t improving.
Let’s cut off his arm.
He still isn’t improving.
Let’s cut off his other arm.
He still isn’t improving.
I don’t know what else we can do, put him on a ventilator, we’ve got LOTS of those.

FACTS are a lagging indicator.

Making definitive statements at this point are nothing but speculation.

RIP. I liked him.

He should have been more honest or at least more quiet about his affair, and he could have been president. To future candidates: your sex life is not our business (unless it’s illegal). Either admit it as one of your failings and you’ve grown, or tell questioners that stuff is not worth discussing and it’s none of their business. Either of those are the correct responses.

I’m sad Herman Cain has passed.

Yes he died from COVID—couldn’t breathe and died from lack of oxygen.

Someone made a definitive statement that Cain died due to colon cancer. I corrected that with definitive statement is that we know the death was during an active covid infection, and there has been no reports of cancer relapse yet. If a report comes out there was a relapse then sure, the cancer could have been the primary cause if death.
