Bill Gates is an American businessman and philanthropist who needs no introduction. He became the world’s richest man from the success of the company he founded that changed the world- Microsoft. He is also known for donating much of his money to charities and has donated (and continues to donate) billions of dollars. His reputation as a true philanthropist has led to the creation of over 1000 scholarships to minors, has funded clean drinking water in the developing world, and gone towards research at curing illnesses.
Through their Gates Foundation, Bill and Melinda Gates have been able to bring some of the greatest scientists together to help create life-changing vaccines, such as the HIV/AIDS vaccine. They are currently working towards developing a COVID-19 vaccine.
Our founder, Samir Becic, has gone on the record to voice his admiration for Bill Gates’ work and dismiss the conspiracy theories leveraged against him “It is very disappointing to see a movement building against Bill Gates based on conspiracy theories, false facts, and political agenda. I believe that he is the hero of our times and I would, without hesitation, volunteer for a trial run of the vaccine that his team comes up with.”
