What a great man with a heart of gold.

Ironic when a Covid denier gets and/or dies from Covid. The list grows. Karma is a fickle bitch.

Sadly, one of the last pictures taken of him, only a few days before he became symptomatic, was at the Trump rally in Tulsa. He probably wasn’t the only victim.

When your time is up, it's up. God takes you when it's your turn. May Herman Cain rest in peace. By the way, it is the Wuhan or China Virus. It originated there.

[Bonnevie]

although I'm sorry he died, I have little sympathy for him. he made his choices, unlike the Detroit bus driver who dies after complaining about a rider coughing on his bus and he could do nothing about it because he had to work. It's unfortunate that even very sick from Covid, he couldn't use his platform to advocate mask wearing and social distancing like many others who didn't wear masks and went to crowded areas then came down with the virus, have.

Yes, it is sad that he contracted Sars-Cov 2 (also known as Covid 19 not as the Wuhan virus). Although they do not know exactly where he contracted it, the timing is suspicious that it likely occurred at the Tulsa rally where he is seen in a crowd of people where none wore masks. Within a week or so he developed symptoms and was hospitalized in early July and put on a ventilator for 3-4 weeks prior to his passing.

What "it" do you mean? Politics? Covid19? If you are saying that if a person dies during the pandemic they will automatically have Covid on their death certificate, that is an untrue generalization. My father died in May in an ALF of long term lung and heart issues. He did not have the virus and there was no mention of such on his death certificate.
Just because the media politicizes everything and makes assumptions w/o facts doesn't mean the rest of us have to. Just saying.

Unfortunately there are many people in the Villages that in February and March and some as late as April, May and June who said Covid 19 was a hoax (not true), fake news (not true) and if one got it that Covid was curable with hydroxychloroquine (also not true). Hopefully people are starting to listen to public health experts albeit a little late but better than never and believing what is being reported on NBC, CBS, and ABC.

Wuhan Virus is the accepted nomenclature when identifying the original vector point for a serious virus. It is not "racist". Ebola, Zika, Hong Kong Flu, etc. all follow this protocol.

Covid 19 is the DISEASE you can get from the Wuhan Virus. The two terms are not synonymous. As to whether or not Mr. Cain caught the virus at the Tulsa rally, all we have is conjecture. There is no proof and he could have easily caught it anywhere else.

Wuhan Virus is not a hoax, but Hydroxychloroquine has been shown to be effective in reducing Covid severity IF administered within 48 hours of symptoms appearing. It is not a cure but rather a prophylactic.
When the MSM start to actually report the science without slanted opinion, I'l start believing them. In the meantime, I prefer to take my direction from unadulterated science. Keep social distancing, wear a mask, wash your hands. All solid advice.

It most certainly IS The Wuhan Virus. This virus was cast upon the world and it originated in.........you guessed it.........WUHAN!!!! That is not a racist term, considering many viruses have been tagged with their origin city as their name.

The disease is named Covid-19 and this disease is caused by The Wuhan virus.

If EVERYONE wore a mask, then we all have a fighting chance of not contracting the virus. Problem is, not everyone is willing to wear a mask. This is where the breakdown occurs and the risk of contracting the virus escalates.

Me wearing my mask will not save me from contracting the virus if others around me do not wear a mask. Me and everyone around me wearing a mask makes the risk of any of us contracting the virus much less.

The main objective during this pandemic is to minimize the risk of contracting the virus. NOTHING is 100% unless you don't go out in public at all. I choose to live life and I will do that while wearing a mask. I just hope others abide with masking so we can all live our lives and not be fearful to be "out there".

God had NOTHING to do with Caine's death. Herman Caine attended the Tulsa rally and contracted the virus because of his own reluctance to wearing a mask and staying clear of crowds, especially INDOORS.

You have no proof that is true, just conjecture, so why even mention it?

It is popularly known as and called the Wuhan coronavirus. It is also known as the China coronavirus and the Chinese coronavirus. COVID-19 is a disease and not the virus as another poster pointed out. Technically the Wuhan coronavirus is designated Sars-Cov 2.

I do not know the technical designations for the German measles, Hong Kong flu, Spanish flu and so on and refer to them by their familiar common names as well.

And this is why covid19 continues!
