The Spin

As Gates was likely profiting off COVID vaccines, the people he pressured into taking them were allegedly being harmed. Even a Gates-funded study last year found that the shots he pushed for were no more effective than natural immunity, leaving doubts about what he knew about them before they were widely mainstreamed.

Influential people, unfortunately, have to bear the brunt of disinformation despite the plethora of facts available.
