Unelected world health czar Bill Gates slammed "conspiracy theorists" for making his "super important work" pushing vaccines on children in developing countries "much harder", during an appearance on Trevor Noah's podcast Thursday.

Gates also took the opportunity to deny allegations that he pushed Covid vaccines on the public as part of a plot to depopulate the world, slamming the idea as an "oversimplistic explanation."

According to Gates, conspiracy theories that he is engaged in a global scheme to harm the human population for his own benefit are wide of the mark and "kind of shocking."
