Bill Gates recalled the rumors of the alleged chip in anticovid vaccines and joked during a TED talk

Vaccines were developed as the most effective response to counter the mortality of the new coronavirus. However, not all social sectors welcomed the idea of ​​being inoculated with the biological.

The anti-vaccine movement -specifically against covid-19- emerged in parallel with the measures that the governments of different countries were adopting in relation to vaccination processes. Fear of side effects, mistrust and even fear of false rumors about a mind control chip present in the vaccine were among the excuses for not receiving the biological against the coronavirus.

More than two years after the pandemic began, vaccination plans have advanced throughout the world. According to figures from Our World in Data65.1% of the world’s population has already received at least one dose of the coronavirus vaccine.

Recently, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates participated in a TED conference in which he spoke about the outlook for the pandemic and vaccination processes.

When asked about how to respond to criticism against the developers of anticovid vaccines, Bill Gates replied: “It’s a bit ironic that someone says no, that we are using vaccines to kill people or to make money or, you know , that we started the pandemiceven some weird stuff like I want to somehow track the location of individuals”.

In that sense, the tycoon joked that these rumors have arisen because “he is deeply eager to know where everyone is.” Gates’ remark drew laughter from the audience, with him even adding that he wouldn’t even know what to do with that information.

Finally, the Microsoft co-founder said that “hopefully when the pandemic calms down, people will be more rational. Vaccines are a miracle, there are more things we can do.”
