Larry Page's secret war on the flu

Google co-founder's efforts to beat influenza are nothing to be sneezed at

Now that Larry Page has stepped down as CEO of Google's parent company Alphabet, he could be following in Bill Gates's footsteps and tackling global health challenges.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai is taking over as CEO of Alphabet

According to charity and business documents obtained by TechCrunch, the billionaire co-founder of Google has been quietly waging a war on the flu.

Thousands of children and teachers in San Francisco's Bay Area will receive free flu shots at their schools this year from Shoo The Flu, which describes itself as a "community-based initiative." In fact, it is wholly funded by a for-profit company controlled by Page. Another of his companies, Flu Lab, is supporting multi-million dollar efforts to develop a universal flu vaccine. Neither effort makes public Page's role in them.
