Bill Gates: "There will still be millions of deaths before the end of the Covid-19 pandemic"

02/25/2021 - "There will still be millions of deaths, before the end of the Covid-19 pandemic". This is the prediction of Bill Gates in an interview with the Economist.For Microsoft co-founder and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation philanthropist, who has already donated more than $ 350 million to the fight against the pandemic, "most of those deaths would not be caused by disease as such, but by overload of health systems, and already stressed economies and especially in poor and developing countries ”.

For Gates, who criticizes the politicization of the American response to the virus, as well as the spread of conspiracy theories, "by the end of 2021 the mass production of a sufficiently effective vaccine will be started, making a sufficient share of humanity immune to block the pandemic. But that's not enough: we must all spend billions to get the vaccine, to avoid the trillions of damage that the pandemic is doing to the economy ”.
