Dutch court accepts jurisdiction in COVID-19 vaccine civil suit naming Bill Gates
[RECORD.TXT] · cat --full
A civil lawsuit filed by seven Dutch plaintiffs who say they were injured by COVID-19 vaccines names Bill Gates alongside former Dutch prime minister and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, members of the Netherlands' COVID-19 Outbreak Management Team, and the Dutch State, alleging they misled the public about vaccine safety. A court in the Northern Netherlands ruled it has jurisdiction to hear the case, allowing the civil proceedings to move forward. Widely shared online claims that Gates had 'lost,' been 'indicted,' or been 'ordered to stand trial in person' are unsupported: fact-checkers note the matter is an unresolved civil suit, not a criminal trial, and that it is unlikely Gates will personally appear. The case had drawn little mainstream coverage despite reaching more than a million views on social media.

Gates keeps a collection of rare and classic cars
Despite his reputation for frugality in some areas, Bill Gates has long indulged a passion for cars, assembling a collection that has included several Porsches — among them the 911 he has owned for decades and the storied 959 — as well as other classics. His automotive tastes, and the saga of importing the then-illegal 959, are among the more colorful footnotes of his personal life.

Gates retreats for solitary, twice-yearly 'Think Weeks'
For years Bill Gates retreated twice a year to a secluded cabin for a solitary 'Think Week,' during which he read stacks of papers, books, and employee proposals with no interruptions, emerging with strategic memos that shaped Microsoft's direction. The ritual became famous as a model of deep, focused thinking by a busy executive, and was credited with helping spark major pivots — including Microsoft's embrace of the internet. Gates carried the habit of voracious, deliberate reading into his philanthropy.
