Fox News ^ | 7.30.2020 | Ronn Blitzer

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."

As I said, there has been no indication it did relapse recently though.

Provide a source indicating there was an active relapse while he was admitted to hospital for respiratory issue a month ago, and I’ll agree with you it was a significant contributing factor to his death in addition to covid.

wikipedia editors are disgusting. this is what it says about his death.

Health and death
In 2006, Cain was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer in his colon and metastases to his liver and given a 30 percent chance of survival. Cain underwent surgery and chemotherapy following the diagnosis, and the cancer was subsequently reported to be in remission.[103]

Cain was admitted to an Atlanta-area hospital on July 1, 2020, for treatment of COVID-19, two days after he was told he tested positive for the virus.[104] His staff said there was no way to be certain where or in what way he contracted the disease.[104] He had attended a Trump rally in Tulsa 11 days earlier without wearing a mask or socially distancing.[105] Earlier on the same day he went to the hospital, Cain praised South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem for not requiring masks at an upcoming Trump campaign event, saying “Masks will not be mandatory for the event, which will be attended by President Trump. PEOPLE ARE FED UP!”[106] Four weeks later, he was still hospitalized and being treated with oxygen.[107] In late July 2020, Cain died of complications of COVID-19.[108][109]

His body weight at Tulsa was very healthy,

Did you weigh him at Tulsa?

and colon cancer does not kill this quickly from healthy body weight without leading to noticeable weight loss first.

Says who?

Stop spreading fake news.

Stop spreading coronavirus fear porn.
What is wrong with you far left lunatics anyway?
People now only die from coronavirus and nothing else till November?
Is that it? You can't even let anyone rest in peace without political exploitation?
Go take a bloody jump!

His cancer had been in remission since 2007, with no indication of relapse. There has been no indication cancer was a significant contributor to his death at this time. Cains weight during the Tulsa rally just a month ago appeared very healthy, making cancer relapse unlikely.

You Covid deniers resort to name calling pretty quick.

The Hydrochloroquine cocktail isn’t always effective when the virus has progressed. Early on gets best results.

I’m simple amazed at how you have, within seconds pronounced judgement, without one ounce of proof to back your statement.

The Covid deniers/anti maskers have indeed gotten great practice because they’ve been making such claims since April.

Herman Cain sadly passed away as a result of Covid-19.

It was believed (by him) he contracted the virus at an event where mask or distancing were being ignored.

You can spin it all you want.

OMG.. Noooo!! I had a bad feeling when they just announced he was in the hospital for 3 weeks.. Was he denied Hydroxychloriquin by the Leftists in medicine?
Rest in Peace, Herman.. You will be greatly missed.

Wikipedia also edited Kamala Harris’s profile when it appeared she was going to be the VP nominee and removed all the bad stuff. So what’s new? They vave been doing for years.
Nobody takes Wikipedia seriously.
