Billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates called for COVID-19 drugs and an eventual vaccine to be made available to countries and people that need them most, not to the 'highest bidder,' saying relying on market forces would prolong the deadly pandemic.

“If we just let drugs and vaccines go to the highest bidder, instead of to the people and the places where they are most needed, we’ll have a longer, more unjust, deadlier pandemic,” Gates, a founder of Microsoft, said in a video released on Saturday during a virtual COVID-19 conference organized by the International AIDS Society.

With hundreds of vaccine projects under way and governments in Europe and the United States investing billions of dollars in research, trials and manufacturing, there is concern that richer nations could scoop up promising medicines against the new coronavirus, leaving developing countries empty-handed.

Gates said efforts begun two decades ago to battle the global HIV/AIDS crisis, when countries came together to eventually make medicines available in most of the world including Africa, can serve as a model for making COVID-19 medicines widely accessible.

Yeah to poison the poor

CTV_AvisFavaro FACT - This plandemic has been in works since 2000 originated from 1974 Kissinger Report depopulation plan.

CTV_AvisFavaro Bill Gates funded the creation of this virus in N Carolina U Lab 2015. Banned as a biological weapon & moved to Wuhan lab funded by Gates since 2000. Vaccine contains virus & microchip. -

👍🏼

So says a multi billionaire. Like he will never get his?

It's going to be tricky, is it this much love vulnerable or?

ArrestBillGates

Why Is he even involved in this? He's not a medical professional, he's a rich tech nerd 🤷🏻‍♀️

Dude - get a shirt that fits. I'm sure you can have one tailored to fit your neck...

He is the virus.

scumbag

Celebrities and politicians come first, of course

It’s going to be tricky.

Put YOUR MONEY where your mouth is. Words are cheap. What’s your PLAN?

Good luck with that

Yeah right!

Where is HCQ then? This guy belongs in hell.

Frazzledrip, pizzagate and the creator of the covid. Next scam his vaccine!

A hospital chain should buy up the supply and then bundle it in their solution. They could improve the administration and treatment process and keep it secret. Then they should sell at a point optimal to preventing other hospital chains from competing. Call it windows ?

Says man worth 91 billion dollars that profits off outdated and basic software platforms 🤔🤪 Yes Bill and computer software and computers should be free 🤔🤪😂

It will never happen. Simple as that 🙄

Depopulation

realDonaldTrump LaraLeaTrump kimguilfoyle perhaps Mr. Gates can Create an Endowment for this🩺💊💉🩸🔬🦠🌡🧪🙏🏼👍🏽

Awe what a gem!

Who died and made him the doctor?

Why a tech guy worried about health issues... The more I know about him, the more I hate him... If the viruses on MS Operating system you were not able to eradicate, just imagine a real vírus... Greedy man BillGates

Wants to make certain poor people are injected with something that will result in fewer of them. The wealthy are not inherently noble, and you can (and should) judge them by the ways they attain—and maintain—their wealth.

Nice words of really no consequence.

Should go to Bill Gates, the world leaders, the politicians, pharmaceutical scientists, executives. Because we really need them to survive this plandemic. Us peasants should be the least of their worries. Leaders first!

I suspect that we all need them.

OTCAtheist Why...that rotten scoundrel! 😉

I ain't never taking no vaccine for anything...🙄

Who is auctioning them ?

Ok! Cómpralos TODOS y repártelos gratis, tú puedes!!

NOCEBO SAYS WHAT.. 🤷🏻‍♂️👌🏻😂😂😂 PLACEBO SAYS “GOD IN ME IS MY HEALTH”!!! 💞🙏💞

WHAT A MONSTER

good luck with that plea, billy. particularly if the Donald is still on top.

Thst would be a bright star in a rather dark sky right now!

US Nursing homes. That is where the most need is.

Hoax fraud.there is not even a virus.

Yes, Bill but what can I do about it? I’m the one who could need it but I have no $ to fight with the “highest bidder”. I not rich and never going to be. It’s always funny to hear rich people talk. They don’t have to worry.

He just wants to experiment on the vulnerable in third world countries again.

Exclusive news: Spreading source of coronavirus. Don't worry about a big deal or small business for your pharmaceuticals. Take hard look this!

The Devils Advocate

Why do smart people scare you so much? Bill Gates has funded the construction of the facilities that will mass produce Covid-19 vaccines. Conspiracy theories are a distraction. Look at what’s really happening right in front of you. FFS.

I've seen how 'Flog It' operates and I will offer a maiden bid of 50 Quids.

This guy, unpredictable.

I sense a lot of hate here? I am not American. Could someone explain what he did/doing.

So kill the elderly and weak that's actually called Eugenics or a HOLOCAUST if your Bill

And by that he means test it out on the poor and blacks first... Use them as the lab rats.

It's a shame you aren't the potus right now BillGates.

trumps' faulty government snafu should pay for them too.

Go to Madagascar

He wants to start killing the poor first.

That’s just what an evil capitalist would say.

So then pay for it Billy

when did he become a doctor?

He can set a good example to others and buy the meds then give them out 🙄

BillGatesVirus

And bill gates was elected by whom? In what capacity does he make these demands?

I don't think that will happen ....money talks

Unfortunately Bill, money talks, bullshit walks. Big pharma will milk this. Good intentions do not always turn into actions....

Easy for the highest bidder to say 🙃

But me first

People are so incredibly jealous of his fame, money and knowledge. There's always a lunatic saying he caused this or that.. yes, Bill Gates is responsible for COVID19, and the chicken/pig/Spanish flu, great fire of London in 1666, the bubonic plague. Setag is a Mayan devil...

And I say Bill Gates should pay his taxes!!!!

Actions speak louder than words.

Once he used to act , now he talks ...

Did it have to take Bill Gates to state the obvious? Anyone who gives medication to the 'highest bidder', instead of people who need them, isn't trying to help, but rather just driven by the desire to make profit!

Paid Bill Gates Trolls on here.

Bill,Do you remember the human removal plan?

Hydroxychloroquine should be OTC !!

And those people are Americans first. Let them be rat experiment!

hahaha. pissing into the wind like a lost fart in a perfume factory.

But that's socialism! Oh noes!

That is how capitalism operates. That is how our capitalist stock market made Bill Gates billionaire & philanthropist. Why did stock market make him so rich & everyone else so poor? Yes capitalism. Filthy rich USA gets all meds. Nothing for remaining poor & discarded!

And how about water, plasters, safe cars, life insurance, pencils, computers, fishing rods, books, toys etc?

Bill Gates is a remarkable human being and does in no way deserve all that conspiracy bullshit that's talked about him.

Who is the “fair judge” that will always decide who is the one that need it most or who will live or die? CommieIntrusiveScarcityManagement Who pays the bills? Is the State all jobs/lives owner?

Guy still can’t get a decent haircut.

Please don't let Trump control the vaccine distribution. Wait until he's gone before releasing it!

If covid19 effects the brain and makes men sterile by effecting there sperm. How will this virus effect our economy and what is the future.

I think Mr Gates should be more worried when Canary Maxwell starts singing like a good ‘un

A decent human being; always has been and always will be.

Bill we have a cure which works near instantly, Stop trying to depopulate the planet

Why is this IDIOT so concerned about vaccines. He is just a STUPID programmer not a medical expert.

Windows custa 1000 reais, e o cara vem falar de honestidade para com os pobres.

Astonishing and sad that this needs to be said out loud.

I assume members of anti-vaccin lobby groups have already volunteered to be last in line for a COVID-19 vaccin?

So many have been so twisted by right wing nonsense they don’t see decency anymore. Liars who speak like ministers spewing hate is the new normal to them.

Is there a cure now?

Time will tell

The bet is he coronas grab him in September shocking nwo members with multiple demonic reptilian attached possession

Bill gates is the culprit. He was instrumental for Corana virus research. How did he know 2 years back about pandemic? Both China & Bill gates should be published

Looks like he wants the governments to buy his vaccines

If he was an attorney he would be an ambulance chaser.... pimpin his vaccines and controlling the world population

Unfortunately Bill, money talks, bullshit walks. Big pharma will milk this. Good intentions does not always turn into actions....

I feel so sorry for him. Bill is such a nice guy but got dragged into those imbecile conspiracy theories.

What if nobody needs them? 😂

😂😂😂 Kill the sheeple quickly population control 101

Come on, wheres the crazy but jobs...i came for the nutters who think he's evil and trying to take over the world with a covid vaccine

Bill gates is behind this

That is natural.

well then pony up for it, Billy. Easy fix for that, put your money where your mouth is.
