On June 27, 2025, reports surfaced linking Bill Gates to controversial animal vaccination initiatives, sparking discussions across various platforms. Posts found on X highlight claims that Gates’ funding through the Gates Foundation has supported research into genetically engineered cattle ticks, with a reported $6 million-plus investment in Oxitec’s project to modify Rhipicephalus microplus ticks. This has been associated with a rise in alpha-gal syndrome, a red meat allergy affecting approximately 450,000 Americans, triggered by tick bites. Separately, a post from the same date references the approval of Gates’ APEEL coating for organic produce, alleging it contains substances that cannot be washed off, though specific details on its composition remain unverified. The Gates Foundation has not issued an official statement addressing these claims directly. In Kenya, a livestock vaccination program set to begin this week has drawn attention, with some attributing its funding to Gates, though the Kenyan agriculture ministry denies foreign involvement, including from Gates. The program aims to vaccinate all livestock at no cost to farmers, targeting unspecified diseases. These developments have fueled online debates, with no conclusive evidence confirming Gates’ direct role in animal poisoning or the outcomes of these initiatives.
