Gates is one of millions, probably billions of people wanting a vaccine.
What rational person doesn't want a vaccine?
It’s got that # associated with it now regardless. Why would anybody want that number associated with anything of theirs...

Or can have it changed by the patent office if they don't like the one they get assigned.
I can see all you want to do is argue.
I’ve provided facts, you do what you want with them.
