US Politics and News All 50 states now require children to be vaccinated for multiple diseases before they’re allowed to begin kindergarten. California requires vaccinations before kids can attend preschool or go to daycare, with no religious exemptions allowed.
Connecticut forces parents to have their children vaccinated for an astonishing 9 separate potential illnesses.
Given that the vaccination issue now impacts all families in America, directly or indirectly, you’d think it would have garnered more media attention when it was learned that vaccine champion and Microsoft founder Bill Gates refused to allow his own children to be vaccinated.
This admission came from the Gates family’s personal physician in Seattle, who was speaking behind closed doors with other doctors at a symposium last year (someone at the conference leaked the conversation, so the doctor himself technically did not violate doctor-patient confidentiality rules).
The doctor reportedly told his colleagues, “I don’t know if he (Gates) had them vaccinated as adults, but I can tell you he point blank refused to vaccinate them as children.”
In the course of his philanthropic work, Bill Gates has become one of the world’s most vocal proponents of forcing everyone to vaccinate their children.
Gates travels to security conferences and rather than speak about the usual leftist boogeyman of the apocalypse (global warming), Gates rants that a worldwide pandemic disease is going to kill tens of millions of people without warning.
We would also note that despite this fear, which is certainly more rational than global warming based on historical precedent and actual science, Gates is an open-borders globalist. He supports allowing sick illegal aliens and refugees to cross our borders with no obstacles to them (certainly not a wall).
Same here…. refused bu we are able to get exceptions up here adn I did so to keep the children from danger. It is not all children whose systems are vulnerable, but you don’t really want to find out if yours is the hard way, do you?

Did Bill Gates Vaccinate His Own Kids?
By Vincent Iannelli, MD / April 8, 2019 / Bill Gates, deaths from vaccine-preventable diseases, HIPAA, Mark Zuckerberg, Melinda French Gates, polio survivor, stories of vaccine-preventable diseases, vaccine myths
The myth that Bill Gates didn’t vaccinate his own kids was debunked nearly a year ago, but that doesn’t keep anti-vaccine folks from bringing it up…
“A hoax website published an unfounded story claiming that a former doctor for Bill Gates said the philanthropist refused to vaccinate his own children. Gates and his wife, Melinda, have invested billions of dollars to research, develop and deliver vaccines around the world to help reduce child mortality.”
Website falsely claims Bill Gates refused to vaccinate his own children
Not surprisingly, they don’t mention the doctor’s name.
Did Bill Gates Vaccinate His Own Kids?
Actually, they don’t provide any evidence at all, which seems to be just fine with most folks who are anti-vaccine and who are simply looking for anything to help them justify their decision to leave their kids unvaccinated and unprotected.
Which closed door medical symposium were they at?
What about the idea that you aren’t violating HIPAA or breaking doctor-patient confidentiality because you are talking to other doctors?
Fortunately, that’s not how HIPAA works.
You can only talk to other providers if they are also involved in the treatment of your patient. You can’t tell other doctors confidential details about your patients just because they are also doctors!
You could tell them things you read about them publicly though, including the fact that Bill and Melinda Gates understood the importance of vaccines long before they had their first child.
“Twenty-five years ago, we read an article that said hundreds of thousands of kids in poor countries were dying from diarrhea. That surprise helped crystallize our values. We believe in a world where innovation is for everyone—where no child dies from a disease it’s possible to prevent. But what we saw was a world still shaped by inequity.”
Bill & Melinda Gates on Our Annual Letter
Do you will still believe that Bill and Melinda Gates didn’t vaccinate their kids?
“I’d like to start by telling you about my wife Melinda’s Aunt Myra. We see her a few times a year. Aunt Myra worked for many years taking reservations for Delta Airlines. She lived in New Orleans until Hurricane Katrina, and then she moved to Dallas, Melinda’s hometown. She loves to see our kids. When we all get together, she’ll sit down on the floor and play games with them. Aunt Myra also has polio. She’s in braces, and she has been ever since she was a little girl.
Our children only know what polio is because of their aunt. Otherwise, the disease would just be another historical fact they learn about in school.”
Bill Gates
What do you need to see to convince you?
“While the rich world is cutting down in tobacco use, it’s growing in the poor world. AIDS and TB are really a phenomenon of the poor world. When I say the poor world of course I mean the majority of the world, anything outside the enclave that most of us here are privileged to live in and the kind of vaccines and things that we take for granted not only for ourselves, but also for our children.”

A pic of them getting vaccinated, like we did with Mark Zuckerberg?
“So many of us who are parents in the room go to our pediatricians; and we take for granted the vaccines for hepatitis A, hepatitis B, polio, measles, mumps, rubella. But things you don’t even think about getting in this country are real scourges in the developing world. And so that’s where we started with the foundation and from there we branched out into doing more work in AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. But I think it’s important for you all to realize that at the core of what we do are children’s issues.”
Melinda French Gates at the Children’s Hospital Foundation
A copy of their children’s immunization records, or would you just think that they were forged?
“It still shocks me today to think about how many children go without basic vaccines that you and I take for granted. A few years ago, Bill and I read a newspaper article about diseases in the developing world. We learned that millions of children die from diseases we thought had been eradicated, diseases like pertussis, hepatitis B, tetanus, and yellow fever. Every year, nearly three quarters of a million people, most of them children, die of measles. Measles!
These children are dying not because we don’t have vaccines to prevent these diseases. They’re dying because the vaccines we have aren’t reaching the people who need them.”
Melinda French Gates at the 2007 World Economic Forum
How about a statement that their kids are fully vaccinated?
All three of Bill and Melinda Gates’ children are fully vaccinated.
Be more skeptical.
Vaccines are safe, with few risks, and are necessary.
Of course Bill and Melinda Gates vaccinate their kids.

If the media was even remotely honest, or relevant, it would demand proof that Bill Gates had his own children vaccinated. Of course, we all know it won’t. If you really believe that, would you please provide with the proof that he did so. I cannot to see it.
