Also neither the polio or tetanus vaccine were developed by big pharma.

I used to think the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation was a charity, that gave to worthwhile causes. I have learnt with the Coronavirus, some money is given as an investment, where they make a profit from it in the future. He became the richest man in the world selling Windows, and office, and antivirus, and a whole lot of other software. He intentionally kept Windows vulnerable to malware, as it helped to make more money selling antivirus programs. He is not finished yet. He and others don't mind destroying the world economy, so they can get even richer making vaccines. It is not about helping the people of the world. It is about making certain people rich. He is just more sophisticated than a car dealer.

Back in the 60's-70's to travel to Africa and much of asia we needed vaccine against yellow fever, (developed by the Rockefeller Foundation and named 17D)
we had to travel with our yellow vaccine pamphlet and it was asked for.

I imagine the same will hold in the future for covid

The vaccine is still being used in Africa

Just look around, here too the approach maybe a little different with asking for when the vaccine is developed, in hope all nationalities and people will be equal, speaking on behalf of his people, but never the less I would not think for one minute he would be without. The wealthy and important will never go without in this world.

Something like this you mean ?

State Dept. Says Russia Pushes Disinformation in Online Network
The State Department says Russia is using a well-developed online operation that includes a loose collection of proxy websites to stir up confusion around the coronavirus by amplifying conspiracy theories and misinformation.

CHICAGO (AP) — The State Department says Russia is using a well-developed online operation that includes a loose collection of proxy websites to stir up confusion around the coronavirus by amplifying conspiracy theories and misinformation.
The department detailed a Russian-backed misinformation cycle that spreads false information online through state officials and state-funded media reports, by infiltrating U.S. social media conversation, and leveraging a deceptive internet framework of websites. The Kremlin’s efforts have most recently focused on conspiracy theories around the pandemic, the report found.

“Russia is playing a significant role in creating and spreading misinformation and propaganda around many topics,” said Lea Gabrielle, head of the State Department’s Global Engagement Center.

The department named more than a half-dozen websites that, serving as “proxies” for Russia, have peddled a series of conspiracy theories about the pandemic that have been widely spreading and hotly debated across social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
The websites the State Department identified Wednesday have promoted unsupported conspiracy theories that allege COVID-19 was created in a lab as a bioweapon, billionaire Bill Gates is plotting to use the pandemic as an excuse to microchip people, and that plans for a coronavirus vaccine are simply a ploy for pharmaceutical companies to make money. There is no evidence behind those claims.

Humans can't beat mother nature and never will. But those who make the decisions are driven purely by self interest and don't give a damn about public health. If this is not clear to you now it never will be, may your chains rest lightly upon you.
Polio
Tetanus
Hepatitis
Measles
....

Glad ‘big pharma’ developed those in the past.
Dont forget small pox.. thanks to the vaccine for it its been removed from the fave of the earth.

The Windows part of this argument is particularly dumb. Firstly, the reason why Windows isn't more secure is simply a combination of ineptitude and convenience for the user - serious security measures inconvenience the users in many cases and they don't want to do that, so there's a trade-off. Secondly, antivirus software for Windows was sold by third parties Bill Gates had no stake in.
