[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] Jennifer Gates (24), daughter of Microsoft (MS) founder Bill Gates, dismissed conspiracy theories surrounding her father by joking that "my dad's genius brain was not transplanted into me" after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine.


On the 14th (local time), according to CNN and others, Jennifer, a medical student, posted a photo of herself getting vaccinated on Instagram, writing, "Unfortunately, this vaccine did not transplant my genius father's brain into mine. If mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) had that kind of power..."


In the photo, Jennifer, wearing a mask, holds a vaccine certification sticker that says "I got the COVID-19 vaccine" and a syringe.


In the post, Jennifer wrote, "I had the privilege of receiving the first mRNA shot that teaches my cells to create an immune response against the virus."


She continued, "As a medical student and aspiring doctor, I am grateful for the protection and safety provided for future clinical practice," and strongly encouraged vaccination by saying, "The more people get vaccinated, the safer our society becomes."


After stepping down from MS management, Bill Gates established the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and has been engaged in activities to develop and distribute vaccines in developing countries.


Thanks to these activities, Bill Gates has become a central figure in vaccine-related conspiracy theories. Some conspiracy theorists claim, according to CNN, that "Bill Gates is trying to spread vaccines containing microchips that can control people's minds or track their locations."



Jennifer appears to have refuted the conspiracy theories about her father through a joke expressing disappointment that the conspiracy theories differ from the actual results of receiving the vaccine.
