They are picking the “un-rich” latter. The rich can still have all the vaccines they want they just gotta pay for it. Same goes for healthcare. If you don’t have a job and arent independently wealthy well screw you dont care about you anyways. So its not just a purge of the sick people its a purge of the poor as well.

I dont think they have an endgame other than at the end they’ve accumulated all the wealth and power possible…nothing about making population healthy

The rich aren’t funding their own vaccine research.

Indeed - even if not strictly true - ( https://www.gatesfoundation.org/our-work/programs/global-hea... ).

Though the main impact I suspect won't be the lack of global vaccine development and availability ( the US is important - but not the whole world ), but rather in the diminishing of the US science and industry base.

The gates foundation notoriously doesn’t pay any sort of reasonable overhead so taking their money often costs as much as they give. They are still giving, which is fantastic, but there are some footnotes with that giving.
