Personalities on Fox News have been slammed for using the death of former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell from complications of COVID-19 to question the effectiveness of coronavirus vaccines.
Tucker Carlson, Will Cain and John Roberts each faced backlash for their coverage. Powell, 84, was fully vaccinated but also had multiple myeloma, a blood cancer that attacks the immune system, making him more susceptible to the effects of the virus.
Cain used the news of Powells death to rail against President Joe Bidens vaccine mandates, claim thered be calls for more truth from our government and note that fully vaccinated people are being hospitalized and dying from COVID-19, even though the vast majority of victims now are unvaccinated.

Roberts deleted a widely criticized tweet saying Powells death raises new questions about the shots, replacing it with a thread saying he was not anti-vaccine.
