Disinfo: Bill Gates wants to depopulate the world

Summary

Bill Gates wants to depopulate the world.

Disproof

Repeating old disinformation debunked many times. In 2010, Bill Gates said:

"First, we’ve got population. The world today has 6.8 billion people. That’s headed up to about nine billion. Now, if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by, perhaps, 10 or 15 percent, but there we see an increase of about 1.3."

As noted by Denbunkingdenialism.com and Snopes Bill Gates is not interested in using vaccines to reduce the population by using them as an agent of death or a tool to sterilize unsuspecting masses. Rather, Gates is interested in keeping more children alive in order to reduce the need for parents to have more children, thus limiting the overall population growth rate. In society after society, he saw, when the mortality rate falls—specifically, below 10 deaths per 1,000 people—the birth rate follows, and population growth stabilizes.

Disinfo: The Czech presidential candidate Jiří Dahoš says that if he does not win the presidential election, it will be a clear evidence of Russian meddling into the elections.

There is, allegedly, a high number of members of the Russian secret services in the Czech Republic, who influenced the parliamentary elections and will influence the presidential elections. The presidential candidate, Jiří Dahoš, says that if he does not win the presidential election, it will be clear evidence that he is right.

Disproof

Jiri Drahoš voiced concern that the Russian secret services could influence presidential elections through pro-Russian orientated media referring to the elections in the U.S., France and Germany. He never mentioned that if he does not win, it will prove that he is right. Although the Czech Security Services said there was no reasonable suspicion that the elections would be influenced, it highlighted in a yearbook from October that "the roles and intensity of the activities of the Russian secret service increased in the Czech Republic last year. They gathered particularly sensitive information from political sphere. Czech Republic was also affected by operations that were part of a campaign against targets such as Ukraine, the EU or NATO, and the Russian secret services have a good network of contacts in the country, which they are continuing to develop.

Disinfo: Europe will become Muslim

Migration from Islamic countries will change the life on the European continent. The unending flow of migrants from North Africa and the Middle East in the coming years will lead to a sharp increase of the number of Muslims in Europe. The number of adherents of Islam can grow threefold.

Disproof

The original research conducted by the Pew Reserch Center presents three scenarios concerning the Muslim migrants in the EU. The "islamisation" of the EU or any possibility of it is not mentioned. According to the "high migration" scenario, Europe’s Muslim population would grow to more than 75 million in 2050 – about 14% of the continent’s population. While Muslims would be considerably more numerous in this case, they would still be greatly outnumbered by both Christians and people with no religious affiliation.
