Original Note:
Bill Gates never said he wanted to use vaccines to reduce the global population. The idea that vaccines are used as a plot to depopulate the planet is a misconstrued interpretation of a TEDx talk Gates gave 12 years ago. His focus is improving health. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/03/23/fact-check-post-misleads-bill-gates-comment-vaccines-population-growth/11527555002/ https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/bill-gates-didnt-say-he-wanted-to-use-vaccines-to-reduce-the-population/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/bill-gates-vaccinations-depopulation/ https://www.poynter.org/?ifcn_misinformation=bill-gates-creates-vaccines-to-reduce-worlds-population https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/01/21/fact-check-bill-gates-claim-missing-context-quote-population/6564548001/
