The former secretary of state died from COVID-19 complications on Monday while suffering from cancer.
Adams discussed COVID-19 breakthrough cases in vaccinated people and pointed out that far more unvaccinated people had died from the virus than vaccinated people. He also noted the issue of co-morbidities in vaccinated people who have died from COVID-19.
"We know a disproportionate number of them have been people with co-morbidities, as General Powell had. So he was someone primed for a breakthrough infection. "He's someone who did what he was supposed to do. He got vaccinated, but it proves we can't just say we're only going to protect the vulnerable, we're only going to worry about those people getting vaccinated and everyone else doesn't matter," he said.
"We all matter and the fact is that General Powell died because we didn't take the proper measures to lower spread in this country. We didn't do everything that we could.""Please, please hear me, for the sake of General Powell and everyone else out there who is vulnerable and who is doing the right thing, please consider getting your vaccine if you haven't yet," he said.
