I wondered where the idea that ‘Bastard’ Bill Gates is desperate to cull the population and plans to do it with vaccines came from.
It is likely it originated from a 2010 ‘TED talk’ presentation on climate change where Gates said that population was one of the factors that needed to be controlled in order to reduce carbon emissions. What he actually said was that the population was forecast to grow from 6.8 billion to 9 billion. However with new vaccines, health care and reproductive health services the
increase could be reduced by “10 or 15 percent”.
This reflects the idea that particularly in the third world, families tend to have more children in the expectation that they won’t all live. However if child mortality can be reduced by improving health care and vaccination, it will result in fewer children being born. It’s fair to say that this isn’t a universally accepted theory. He has continued to talk about this although more recently he has acknowledged that population growth has slowed and is even falling in many parts of the world. In 2012 he said in an interview
“… the problem is that the population is growing the fastest where people are less able to deal with it … Niger, right now, it's still seven children per family…”
As usual, unscrupulous grifters and conspiracy theorists could not wait to twist this to suit their own agenda. For example in 2019, an excerpt from a video emerged on Twitter in which a ‘Dr’ Robert Young claimed that Gates had said
“…at least 3 billion people need to die. So we’ll just start off in Africa. We’ll start doing our research there and we’ll eliminate most of the Africans because they are deplorable, they are worthless.” Naturally within the last year this video has resurfaced on social media as part of the avalanche of Covid-19 conspiracy theories.
Robert O. Young holds doctorates in naturopathy and nutrition from the Clayton College of Natural Health. He claims that viruses don’t exist and thus obviously that vaccines don’t work and are harmful. He believes that cancer (and a myriad of other health conditions) can be cured with an ‘alkalarian’ lifestyle which he promoted in a best selling book.
He has also been charged several times over more than ten years with practicing medicine without a licence and finally in 2017 was sentenced to 44 months in jail on 2 counts of the same charge and also theft. In sentencing he admitted that he has no degrees from any accredited schools, that he had bought his diplomas and that he is not “
"a microbiologist, hematologist, medical doctor, naturopathic doctor, or trained scientist”. In 2018 he was ordered to pay $105 million to a cancer patient for claiming he was a doctor and advising her to refuse traditional medical treatment. She was only one of a number of people that he ‘treated’ with his ‘ph Miracle’ as reported by the BBC in 2017

This the calibre of person that, for his own personal enrichment is creating the myths that are feeding the conspiracy theories that we see. Young clearly had no regard for the lives of his 'patients' so it's no surprise that he would have no scruples about lying about Bill Gates. It's a shame that conspiracy theorist's 'research' doesn't extend far enough to realise it.
