A newly released series of documents from the Epstein files contains the claim that Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates contracted a sexually transmitted disease which Jeffrey Epstein knew about.
These claims come from an email that appears to have been written by Epstein to himself in which the convicted sex offender wrote that Gates had asked him to 'delete the emails regarding your std', and are part of the latest US Department of Justice release.
This email was dated 18 July 2013 and contains a series of claims in which Epstein says that his friendship with Gates is over and he was very unhappy with this.
He wrote: "TO add insult to the injury you them implore me to please delete the emails regarding your std, your request that I provide you antibiotics that you can surreptitiously give to Melinda and the description of your penis."

Gates has previously said of Epstein that it was 'a huge mistake to spend time with him', while his ex-wife Melinda had said she 'did not like' the fact that her husband 'had meetings with Jeffrey Epstein'.
She said she met Epstein 'exactly one time' and called him 'evil personified'. The couple would finalise their divorce in 2021.
In the email he wrote to himself, Epstein alleged that Gates slept with Russian women, contracted an STD and then asked for antibiotics to 'surreptitiously give to Melinda'.
It followed another email Epstein sent to himself about an hour earlier saying he was resigning from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation claiming he had been involved in a 'severe marital dispute' between the two of them.
He says he had been asked to do things 'potentially over the line into the illegal'.
Epstein alleged: "From helping Bill to get drugs, in order to deal with consequences of sex with russian girls, to facilitating his illicit trysts, with married women, to being asked to provide adderall fro [sic] bridge tournamnts [sic]."
Responding to these latest claims, a spokesperson for Bill Gates told LADbible: “These claims are absolutely absurd and completely false. The only thing these documents demonstrate is Epstein’s frustration that he did not have an ongoing relationship with Gates and the lengths he would go to entrap and defame.”
Gates has previously admitted that he met with Epstein several times. The Microsoft co-founder has appeared in previous releases of the Epstein files, both with his name written in documents and pictures of him being part of the evidence made available to the public.
The images are not proof of wrongdoing, and the claims made by Epstein in emails he appeared to send to himself have not been verified.
