Bill Gates predicted a new pandemic in 3 years

Bill Gates, an American billionaire and one of the creators of Microsoft, who recently named the only way to overcome the coronavirus, spoke about the inevitability of a new pandemic. In his opinion, it will come not in a hundred years, as happened with the coronavirus and the Spanish flu, but in the next few years.

This is discussed in a podcast with actress Rashida Jones, dedicated to the consequences of COVID-19.

Discussing the coronavirus with Jones and US infectious disease specialist Anthony Fauci, the billionaire predicted that humanity is unlikely to be able to prevent a new pandemic. According to his forecast, it could start in three years, and in the best case, in 20 years.

However, in any case, according to Gates, humanity will be much better prepared for a pandemic next time: systems will be developed to test possible carriers of the infection and mechanisms to introduce quarantine.

In addition, the participants in the discussion came to the conclusion that humanity has a long way to go before life returns to normal.

In September, Gates did a great interview about the coronavirus. “Strana” cited his main theses.

Meanwhile, the WHO has warned Europe about the third wave of coronavirus.
