The novel coronavirus pandemic will define the modern era in the same way World War II shaped an earlier generation, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates says in a 11-page memo outlining his ideas on how best to tackle the disease.
“This is like a world war, except in this case, we’re all on the same side,” he writes.
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has committed $250 million to the battle and Gates has been speaking up regularly to influence its direction — something that has sometimes placed him at odds with President Donald Trump and made him a target of right-wing pundits and conspiracy theorists.
Gates’ memo barely mentions politics, focusing instead on the technological innovations necessary to bring the virus to heel. But he warns it will not be a fast or easy process.
“It is impossible to overstate the pain that people are feeling now and will continue to feel for years to come,” he says.
Gates says the social distancing measures enacted around the world saved millions of lives and have not been an overreaction. Even without government mandates and lockdowns, he points out, people would probably have changed their behavior anyway to avoid infection. And even as restrictions are eased, many people won’t immediately resume their old routines until they feel safe.
In the coming months, the drop-off in new infections will be precipitous in places where social distancing has slashed the rate of transmission, he says.
“A lot of people will be stunned that in many places we will go from hospitals being overloaded in April to having lots of empty beds in July,” Gates writes. “The whiplash will be confusing, but it is inevitable from the exponential nature of infection.”
But as restrictions loosen, infections will flare and begin to grow rapidly at many

YOU and your Buddy RUINATION of our NATION!
Bill Gates is no doubt a brilliant businessman and technician, but from his recent statements it’s clear he has no more wisdom than ... well ... just about anybody else. Thankfully he’s not in charge of policymaking ... a huge mistake Trump made with his “experts” that he won’t make again!
The fight against Gates, Soros and the other NWO crowd will be more significant.
He’$ on the $ide of the viru$...and the cure.
If it would just save one life, Bill Gates should kill himself.
It is impossible to overstate the pain that people are feeling now and will continue to feel for years to come,”

Most predictions are wrong. I suspect Mr. Gates’s prediction will also be proven wrong. The reason is most predictions are emotional driven rather than fact driven. They are made to influence rather then inform.
In other words perhaps Mr. Gates really wants the pain to continue for a long time so that they will turn towards the solution he is proposing.
Chances are in a year from now this will all be just a bad memory.
Shut up and leave us alone.
Hey, Bill, sail off into the sunset on your gorgeous megayacht, and don’t try to be of help.
It will be defined in history instead by how badly we shot ourselves in the foot and destroyed our economy, businesses' survival and people's livelihoods.
This is not like WWII but where both sides are on the same team as Gates argues. There are two sides but they are not the US and China.
One side is Trump and his desire to get this machine back up and running before we die from a self-inflicted wound. From an unforced error.
And the other side are the globalists, like Gates. Liberals. democRATS who want to destroy, not the corona virus, but Trump's booming economy and his chances of reelection.
They don't care about the American people, their employer businesses or their livelihoods. They only care about their socialist revolution and the ability to control people through the power they will get from taking over the economic system with socialism and destroying capitalism.
The democRATS see this as a test run of how our country will run when they get back in power and start picking the winners and losers in our country. Not via the free market but by big government intervention.
We don't need to focus on this virus. These periodic viruses will come and go and continue to kill people randomly into the future. Mother Nature's way of culling of the population. We need to learn not to make the solution worse than the bug.
We've spent a dollar to save a nickel and lost the 95 cents in the process.
Amazing this late in the game, people still think he just happened upon his place as software (crappy) mogul.
I’m curious how torn he might be, does his desire to thin the herd get over ridden by his insane weird fetish of chipping everybody?
“We are shutdown because they take the mortality numbers for elderly people with underlying conditions and project that onto younger people without those conditions.”
Maybe so but I hope not as that goes beyond stupidity to dishonesty.
More likely they don’t want the younger people to become massively (and usually harmlessly) infected and spread the infection to the elderly.
LOL!
And mama on a board for IBM.
If normal people do not find this disturbing, then I don’t know what will.
Microsoft applied for this patent: WO2020060606 - CRYPTOCURRENCY SYSTEM USING BODY ACTIVITY DATA
Applicants
MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLC
https://patentscope2.wipo.int/search/en/detail.jsf?docId=WO2020060606&tab=PCTDESCRIPTION
From the patent application:
“Abstract
(EN)
Human body activity associated with a task provided to a user may be used in a mining process of a cryptocurrency system. A server may provide a task to a device of a user which is communicatively coupled to the server. A sensor communicatively coupled to or comprised in the device of the user may sense body activity of the user. Body activity data may be generated based on the sensed body activity of the user. The cryptocurrency system communicatively coupled to the device of the user may verify if the body activity data satisfies one or more conditions set by the cryptocurrency system, and award cryptocurrency to the user whose body activity data is verified.”
More from the patent documents:
“[0036] At operation 320, when or after user 145 performs the task(s) provided by task server 110, sensor 140 may sense the body activity of user 145 that is a body response related to the task provided by task server 110, and then transmit the sensed body activity of user 145 to user device 130. The body activity may include, for example, but not limited to, radiation emitted from human body, brain activities, body fluid flow (e.g. blood flow), organ activity or movement, body movement, and any other activities that can be sensed and represented by images, waves, signals, texts, numbers, degrees, or any other form of information or data. Examples of body radiation emitted from human body may include radiant heat of the body, pulse rate, or brain wave. Brain waves may comprise, for example, but not limited to, (i) gamma waves, involved in learning or memory tasks, (ii) beta waves, involved in logical thinking and/or conscious thought, (iii) alpha waves, which may be related to subconscious thoughts, (iv) theta waves, which may be related to thoughts involving deep and raw emotions, (v) delta waves, which may be involved in sleep or deep relaxation, or (vi)
electroencephalogram (EEG), which may be measurement used to evaluate the electrical activity in the brain, such as deep concentration. Examples of the body movement may include eye movement, facial movement or any other muscular movements. Furthermore, brain activity can be sensed using the fMRI. The fMRI measures brain activity by detecting changes associated with blood flow. This technique relies on the fact that cerebral blood flow and neuronal activation are coupled. When an area of the brain is in use, blood flow to that region also increases.”
This is where Bill and Melinda will be ‘suffering’...LOL - how stupid do they think we are?

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and his wife Melinda have reportedly purchased one of the largest oceanfront homes in Del Mar, California for $43 million as first reported by The Wall Street Journal.The 5,800 square foot residence was owned by Madeleine Pickens, former wife of Texas billionaire T. Boone Pickens, who listed the property in January for $48 million.
As more Americans start dying - - so 'elites' can have their favorite restaurants and dry cleaners open - - expect to see CNN and MSNBC disguise the fact that all their 'on-air talent' are broadcasting from the safety of thier living rooms - or where ever the bookcase is located.
Now I don’t trust him at all and would not want to meet him. At the very least, he’s got a severe marketing problem. At the worst, he’s behind CV-19 and is like an evil villain from Batman.
Your operating systems sucked, and so do your vaccines.
