Why was Bill Gates struggling to fight the epidemic but was "hunted down" in the United States?

　　Bill Gates, who was "hunted down" by some US public opinion during the New Crown Epidemic, recently took his wife to record graduation speeches for American graduates, encouraging young people to actively participate in shaping the new social structure after the epidemic.

　　According to data compiled by the Zignal labs, a joint analysis agency of the New York Times, Bill Gates is now the favorite target of misinformation for the new coronavirus. From February to April, the conspiracy theory that mixed it with the virus was mentioned 1.2 million times on TV and social media, and reached a peak of 18,000 times in April. Why did he make every effort in the global anti-epidemic, but he became the target of a part of public opinion "hunting down"?

　　Since the outbreak of the New Crown epidemic, from donating money and materials, to answering online questions from global netizens, to appearing as a home isolation spokesperson, Gates has fully supported the global fight against the epidemic. To date, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has pledged to invest US $ 305 million in research and development of new coronavirus vaccines and drugs. However, it is for this reason that Bill Gates has incurred "overzealous" criticism, and some public opinion commented that its limelight and responsibility have overshadowed the US government, and conspiracy theorists are more suspicious of his hidden secrets.

　　Bill Gates has publicly sang counter-attacks with Trump on many occasions, criticizing the US epidemic prevention measures, which has made it a "nail" for the right-wing and anti-vaccine groups.

　　As one of the "whistle blowers" of the US epidemic, Gates warned Trump of the importance of epidemic prevention as early as 4 years ago. He was the first to criticize the US government for its unqualified anti-epidemic measures and missed the opportunity to defeat the virus. He pointed out that the detection situation in the United States was chaotic and the government failed to coordinate public health initiatives nationwide as early as possible.

　　When Trump attributed over one million new crown infection groups in the United States to American virus testing, which was better than other countries, Gates said that his face detection ability in Asia is far higher than that of the United States; When the US government decided to "disconnect" the WHO on April 15, Gates criticized the decision that day was very dangerous, and added $ 150 million in funding to WHO in the name of its foundation.

　　Gates advocates international cooperation to fight the epidemic, and should not divert energy to blame each other. He has publicly stated that the experience of China ’s national defense epidemic is worth learning. Strict isolation measures can reduce the number of confirmed cases; China has expanded the scope of detection and avoided large-scale transmission. Therefore, he called on the United States to curb the spread of the epidemic with three measures: complete closure of the city, accelerated expansion of testing, and accelerated vaccine research and development.

　　Gates's stimulus also stimulated many low-level people who were living for their livelihood, as well as anti-blockers. From April to May, a large number of demonstrators gathered in Austin, the United States and Melbourne, Australia, shouted "arrest Bill Gates", and called for a restart of the economy and opposed the blockade. During this period, Gates even received death threats.

　　Gates' achievements and insights in the field of public health have also become the main "evidence" for attackers to demonize him.

　　From the beginning of this year, Gates' two early TED speeches and some of his interviews were turned out, and he was accused of being a "new coronavirus creator", "a vaccine profiteer" and a "population removal planner".

　　The right-wing and anti-vaccine community "opened their brains", describing the predictions and warnings of highly infectious virus outbreaks in Gates' speech in 2015 as "conspiracy", believing that "God's prophecy" shows that he has already known the new crown virus and is using it The powerful relationship network has planned the virus outbreak and tried to realize its vision of slowing down the global population growth. He used "digital certificates" to track the rehab of the virus and was said to try to implant chips in the human body to control all Americans. Some people would rather believe Trump ’s "disinfection of water to kill viruses" than accept Gates ’s vaccine theory. Anti-vaccines accuse him of taking advantage of vaccines for profit. American media "24 Hour News" even followed the rumor that Gates will test the vaccine in Africa, and then voluntarily clarified and apologized.

　　Bill Gates, who has called on countries to value the threat of highly infectious viruses for years, has been making appearances, but has been ignored. It is hard for him to imagine that after the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, he was called "hot search" by the stigmatized rumors, and the other "turned red".

　　Public opinion attackers have quickly portrayed Bill Gates as a genius, workaholic, and "frankenstein". Gates said in an interview recently that he was tired. He was once so proud of Americans that he encountered such terrible and sad bullying. (Finish)
