1. Why was he unvaccinated? Hesitant? Careless? Lazy? or Anti-vax?

Holliday died Sunday of Covid-19 in Simi Valley, California, according to longtime friend Robert Wollenweber.
"Unfortunately, he didn't want to get vaccinated. He wanted to get the Covid so he could build immunities and his wish came true about a month ago," said Wollenweber in a telephone interview with CNN. "He got sicker and sicker and was having trouble breathing, so they finally took him to the hospital. When his oxygen levels went down, they put them on a ventilator. And then he got pneumonia and his kidneys were shutting down and he had internal bleeding. And then he died Sunday."
