I bet Bill Gates is feeling really cheated right about now. All those years iterating through the different versions Windows and 5G, building the perfect virus, only to have these two quacks steal his thunder.

Bill Gates's work may make him eligible for the peace prize, but he is NOT a doctor, clinician, or medical researcher. He shouldn't be eligible for the medicine prize.
