Microsoft co-founder and philanthropist Bill Gates, who warned five years ago that the worlds greatest threat was a pandemic, believes that the current coronavirus crisis is a nightmare scenario, but said social distancing and a strong national response can keep casualties lower than the numbers projected by President Trump.
Trump predicted that the U.S. could see between 100,000 and 240,000 deaths from COVID-19 before the outbreak is under control.

For Gates, it’s sort of a dream come true. He wants to decrease the surplus population.

The big shock for Bill Gates will be how fast C19 is going to be brought under control....

He ruined MS by turning it over to foreigners, and he’s worthless as teats on a bull, in world situations.

Trump never predicted a number....not once...never....he only passed on numbers given to him.
Bill....go talk to Fauci about the numbers.

Exactly - “says the software guy”. Ok. I’m a “software guy” too. Why should anyone listen to me?

Trump predicted that the U.S. could see between 100,000 and 240,000 deaths from COVID-19 before the outbreak is under control. No. Trump did not make that prediction. He's repeating what the models were showing.
Idiot reporting.

Don’t worry everybody, Gates say we will have the right to assemble again once we’re all vaccinated. So it’s all good.

If he’s such an expert on viruses, why do we need Norton, Kaspersky, etc., on his Windows systems?

If Dr Fauci came out and started talking about how to fix the Windows Registry, everyone would laugh.
