healthy enough to get it, may have bought him some more. but he was too sick to take it. his loss is a reminder of why we all need to get vaccinated, not just to protect ourselves but the vulnerable like him. there are many who can t get vaccinated. but even people like the general, and there are so many in that generation, even when they re vaccinated, a vaccine is not perfect, and they are vulnerable. and if they re exposed to somebody, they can still get sick. powell was strong in the face of a challenge. medically and politically. i don t want to talk about him just as he died, but that matters too. he did something, you know, that we never see today. he admitted he was wrong for passing bad information and making the case to go to war in iraq. and that gave him accountability. it give him credibility. and that allowed him to call out others. and he did it, once again, very
