    Died of turbo gastric cancer, probably a result of taking the COVID
    vaccine which overrides the immune system's priorities, which, in the
    case of Nigel Latta, probably included keeping his nascent gastric
    cancer (then undiagnosed) under control.

    In 2021, when asked why he had taken on the role of a public COVID
    vaccine advocate, he replied "Because I don't want to die". RIP.

    His widow describes his sense of humour; a few days before he died, he got
    a copy of his just-published last book, rCLLessons on LivingrCY. He chuckled.

    rCLWhy?rCY she asked.

    rCLThat title, rCyLessons on LivingrCO,rCY he replied. rCLWhat a fucking PR nightmare.rCY
