The conspiracy theories connecting Gates to coronavirus started in late January, according to a recent New York Times investigation, with a "YouTube personality linked to QAnon" who claimed Gates had prior knowledge of the coronavirus pandemic. 

Days later, the website Infowars — the site run by Alex Jones, a conspiracy theorist who claims the Sandy Hook shooting was a hoax — published a piece that incorrectly stated the Gates Foundation "co-hosted a pandemic exercise in late 2019 that simulated a global coronavirus outbreak." 

The Infowars piece attempted to connect the Gates Foundation's ongoing investments in fighting global pandemics to prior knowledge of the coronavirus pandemic.
