Bill Gates was planning - Pandemic Simulations - with Epstein in 2017..?

Newly released Jeffrey Epstein files circulating online reference a March 3, 2017, email described in social media posts as being addressed to “Bill,” identified by posters as Bill Gates, and copied to Larry Cohen.

The posts say the email outlined proposed projects from Epstein’s group, including a “pandemic simulation,” health data systems, and reports on U.S. health spending and neurological technologies.

The claims are based on screenshots and descriptions shared on social platforms, not full documents reproduced publicly.

Some posts link the 2017 email to later pandemic tabletop exercises, though no direct connection is documented.

Gates and his representatives have denied other allegations appearing in the broader file release.
