That's actually $129 Billion in total or $64.5 Billion each. Simple arithmetic really

One wonders why they have given so relatively little out of that pile for the pandemic relief perhaps they were saving up.

Get real!
How much do you think they have had to fork out for the billions of micro silicone chip trackers that go with the vaccines?
Said will soon be revealing the real reason for this split up. If indeed it is a real divorce and not just a sympathy distraction so that they can go on jabbing and mind controlling.

You'll find that they have. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is the largest philanthropic trust in the world. They have committed to spending most of their money on good causes.
There is plenty of money for the pandemic - far more people, especially children, die from diarrhoea and Malaria than from Covid and this is where the bulk of the Gates money is going.

"Gates is not a Lizard Person, and his foundation has done some excellent work, but he is part of a small class of elites who are able to bypass democracy, and does embody many aspects of contemporary society that need to change. The decision of individual billionaires to be useful is better than pure self-regard, but ultimately billionaires should not exist in the first place. Bill Gates is richer than 140 different countries. This is too much concentrated wealth and power and it makes a farce of democracy. The question of how the huge resources of the modern world are used to meet our broad social needs should be decided on democratically, not by the whim of a rich person.
Let Gates jet off into the sunset."
Blimey!

Always best to check the facts before making disgusting statements like that.
He is one of very few billionaires who actively makes sure he pays all his taxes and is quoted on record as having said he wished he paid more in taxes.

Well, it’s worth observing that the Foundation operates with what is effectively a large public subsidy. Tim Schwab of the Nation—whose name will recur, since he has produced some the best critical journalism on Gates and the Foundation—says that money is exempt from tax because it belongs to a charity, and has to be seen as “money that otherwise would have gone to the US Treasury to help build bridges, do medical research, or close the funding gap at the IRS (which has resulted in fewer audits of billionaires).” As law professor Ray Madoff said to Schwab: “when they get significant tax benefits, it’s also our money.”
From the article I linked to earlier. It also mentions somewhere that Vox has Gates funding. Talks a little bit about their media influence.

As your seeing they haven't given what they give the impression of having done.
From their website The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has committed $1.75 billion for work on COVID-19 responses globally.
The money comes from many people and is great but Bill until his recent break up is worth $130 Billlion or so.
