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.

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.

Well suffered from a cancer that makes pretty much every shot ineffective. Can’t boost your immune system when you basically don’t have one.

Nah, the clot shots exacerbated his cancer.

Being dead makes the vaccine ineffective.

But they’ve been saying the vaccine lessens the symptoms. So it would have been worse if he weren’t vaccinated. /sarc

Bullseye on the very first post.

What this proves is the Jab doesn’t work for the most part. You can still get the Rona, you can pass it along, you have adverse side effects and you can still die. Sounds like it is just a money pit for big pharma.

Dr shows test to demonstrate Spike Jab drastically reduces ability of T-Cells to fight off cancer cells…

Maybe Colin Powell died as a result of the jab drastically reducing his immune system’s to kill cancer cells.

My mom had cancer. Chemo, radiation, they destroy the immune system, apparently.

And I’m sick of everyone attributing General Powell’s death to Covid. He was 85, for goodness sakes, and had underlying co-morbidities.

He served the country well, though he did vote for Obama and apparently Hillary. ?

But he lived a long and very brave life; from what I understand, he served in Vietnam.

He was a good man. RIP, Gen. Powell. And condolences to his family.

Was it Mark Twain that said I never killed anyone but read many an obituary with great satisfaction?

“Well suffered from a cancer that makes pretty much every shot ineffective. Can’t boost your immune system when you basically don’t have one.”

Yet~The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are available as a 3rd dose for certain immunocompromised patients.

The look on Powells face when he found out 72 virgins were not awaiting his arrival.....PRICELESS
