Former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell has died of coronavirus despite receiving two consecutive vaccinations against the disease. The doctors explained that this politician had comorbidities that greatly increase the risk of death if infected.
Colin Powell is famous not only as the first African American to hold the post of Secretary of State, but also as the same politician who shook a test tube with supposed samples of biological weapons from Iraq in front of the UN Security Council. Subsequently, it was discovered that this was a pure fraud, but it was thanks to this test tube that the George W. Bush administration, together with its allies, unleashed a bloody Iraqi war, the consequences of which in the region are still being felt. Colin Powell died at the age of 84 from the effects of the coronavirus, but doctors say that the reason for his death is not only covid.
The former secretary of state had severe comorbidities – a blood tumor and Parkinson's disease. Both of these ailments significantly increase the likelihood of a severe outcome of COVID-19. An elderly man was battling multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer that severely weakens a person's immune system. Well, Parkinson's disease actually finished off an already weakened patient.
Colin Powell's immune system was compromised by the treatment of developing ailments. That is why both vaccines received did not cause the desired response in the form of a sufficient amount of antibodies. Other older people with chronic diseases should also be aware of this. It may be right for them to get an additional third shot, which will help them better prepare for a possible infection with coronavirus, writes The Daily Mail. (READ MORE)
