Publications allege that there are Japanese scientists warning about the presence of abortifacient drugs in vaccines. But there is no data about it. The risk of miscarriage does not increase with vaccination.
Several posts circulating on the social network Facebook allege that Japan threatened the well-known businessman Bill Gates, after substances that could cause pregnancy termination were detected in the vaccines used to prevent Covid-19. “Japan warns Bill Gates that his ‘days are numbered’ after abortive drugs found in vaccines,” reads one of the posts, which also claims that the discovery was made by working group created by the Japanese government. Was it really like that?
The 68-year-old owner of Microsoft and North American philanthropist has been, since 2000, the best-known face of the so-called Gavi Alliance, a Foundation project he created with his wife, Melinda, with the aim of improving access to the children. in the poorest countries to vaccines, having already supported the vaccination of more than one billion children around the world. When the Covid-19 pandemic emerged, the Alliance began working to facilitate access to vaccination for the entire global population and, in 2024, announced that it would support the distribution of 200 million Covid vaccines to children in Africa and Asia .
For this reason, Bill Gates has been the target of the most varied conspiracy theories, which have become even more frequent since the pandemic. He has already been accused of creating the pandemic to benefit financially from the distribution of vaccines; of having said that the Covid vaccines were intended to “control” humanity; of having paid 10 million dollars to make bird flu transmissible to humans; or having introduced HIV into the vaccine against monkeypox (the so-called monkeypox), among other theories, all of which have been proven false.
Now, several publications highlight that some Japanese scientists are asking “international prosecutors” to open a case of crimes against humanity against Bill Gates. But there is no indication about it. There is also no data to support the claim that Covid-19 vaccines contain any type of abortive medication, nor have Japanese scientists warned about it. In fact, according to a study carried out in three Saudi hospitals and published in the scientific journal Cureus, vaccination is not associated with an increased risk of spontaneous abortion in women vaccinated during the first and second trimesters of pregnancy. Another study, carried out with Dutch women, goes in the same direction: no association was identified between vaccination against Covid-19 during pregnancy and the risk of miscarriage.
Conclusion
There is no data to show that Japan or Japanese scientists have threatened businessman Bill Gates over anti-covid vaccines. Furthermore, existing studies show that there is no relationship between vaccination and abortion.
