■這個訊息的源頭,是Bill Gates在2020年3月19日參加了reddit的「Ask Me Anything」活動,在其中一則回應中提到他認為未來將有數位憑證(digital certificates)去紀錄是否經檢驗、是否康復、相關疫苗紀錄。

■但需留意:

①數位憑證(digital certificates)「不等於」文中所提植入人體的微晶片(microchips)。

②Bill Gates「從未」表示要強制性地給人類植入微晶片。

③雖然Gates Foundation的確有提供資金給微晶片相關的公司,但目的是為發展協助女性生育計畫的系統,且Bill Gates並未表示此與上述數位憑證有任何關聯。
