'It took a while to get that message out,” Gates said. “Some political leaders helped with that, some political leaders did not.”

“The number of things that in retrospect, could have been done better on this pandemic is very, very large,” Bill Gates told journalists in a conference call.

In this screengrab, Bill Gates speaks during All In WA: A Concert For COVID-19 Relief on June 24, 2020 in Washington.There are a slew of things the world could have done better in terms of tackling the coronavirus from the outset, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates believes, reflecting on the medical and societal response to the pandemic.

"Even the medical community are understanding of the importance of masks. You know, it took us several months — most respiratory diseases are coughing diseases. They're not talking or singing diseases. And so we got that one wrong. We underestimated the value of masks." "It took a while to get that message out," Gates said. "Some political leaders helped with that, some political leaders did not," he added without mentioning names.

It’s joke. his companion:Dr fauci and WHO downplayed the importance of masks for months while just watching most in Asia wore masks. Now make such jokes. Looks that someone was stupid then. No, they were much smarter by sacrificing others to benefit themselves

Professing to be wise BillGates has become a fool. He's become so smart he wants to determine who propagates thru sterilization and abortion. Co2 is result of temp rise not major cause. Global warming is God's preview not Little 'g'gates.

Shouldn’t this story be flagged and took down as Bill Gates is not a scientist and it’s no fact driven by years of studies?

Why is this clown even talking about these topics..

Asesino Gates

Most America’s billionaires care for the others unlike most foreign rich people.

Who is this guy?! What the heck does he know? People, stop listening to rich people as if they know it all! They aren’t gods!

Go to hill no one is taking your 💉 vaccinations.

How a computer freak can talk on medical issues go back to your stupid computers that get effected by viruses all the time.. the worst software windows lol thanks I got apple my windows was always has viruses like corona same thing lol

our incompetent potus

One day we will get past the pandemic despite the actions of the president, however because of his denials, it’s going to take much longer as the victims numbers mount.

'We'? I guess some of those non-believers in mask but we still have under-estimated power of heating pads.

Bill gates ain't no Dr his got vested interests in this as you well know this is b.s

Except US, the rest of the world recognised there is a pandemic. We wear mask, social distance and observe personal hygiene. Only US is the laughingstock.

How is Bill Gates a 'public health expert?' Didn't he drop out of college? How did he get his medical degree after that?

If people have not figured out that coughing and sneezing propels droplets from your mouth containing the common cold, flu and now Covid viruses and you will catch it from others then they deserve now to get more sicker than ever. Gates didnt know this simple physics principle ?

MidweekChurchExpo Only the ANOINTING of The LORD can give mankind hope beyond the tomb.

We have a Flat Earther baboon for a president, what do you expect.

It's ok Bill, we still trust you completely due to your medical background and the fact you've never been wrong about anything else. You have our blind faith and devotion sir, just tell us what to do - attempt to mandate it if you have to 👍🏻

And overestimate the value of vaccines

Thank you, Doctor Gates! 🥱

Suprise.

Dr Fauci said masks are worthless! You must’ve earned your MD on ORGY ISLAND.... LOTS OF DISEASE SPREADING 😷💰

Why do you post people who are on Epstein logs, almost daily? Can’t wait till msm gets their karma.

China didn’t—they used them right from the start...

All tech companies too shud invest and join in the research work of corona vaccine.

People are wearing masks. After 4 + months it feels normal to put on a mask to go into a store.

gates is lunatic

Not for bank robbers. hachche

Bill the scientist

As he sits there without a mask

propaganda

What else did you « underestimated » TrustIsNotFree

Who would have ever guessed that preventing the inhalation and exhalation of COVID would save lives? 🤷🏼‍♂️

Bill, people all over the world hates you. We know what you're doing. WE KNOW.

He must have investments in masks as well.

People can't understand the value of mask until or unless they suffer with the problems or situations.. Good to hear the value 🙏😈😈

No shit. Dr. Fauci told us they didn’t work.

No, we overestimated the value of government.

Since when you became an expert in virology? You underestimate the quality of life and natural human function to fucking breathe freely.

lol the guy is a scientist now. lmfao

Microsoft mask?

Who is “we”?

‘Clean’ Mask. Wait till people start getting other respiratory sickness from using dirty mask over and over again.

Why do we give a shit about what Bill Gates thinks he knows about epidemiology? Go program a computer, nerd boy...

Is he even a doctor? Who appointed you as the Covid expert?

What is this NBC obsession with Bill Gates? I'm sure the majority would agree that:

Said the snake oil salesman

And we the people underestimated your danger!

CDC says bandana will work. They told this to Doctors and Nurses. They killed a lot of them that listened. CDC has no credibility in the health care front. Who was the genius behind this pamphlet? I want a face to face talk with that person.

You should add context, like “to control crowds or people”. I’m I natural scientist and once again I’ll tell you, it’s like using barbed wire to block insects! Our immune system weakens by putting fear on people, by not socializing. Bill should be sued for genocide!

Tell him, take back all death due to him selling herd immunity. Tell him, take back all set back on my work, because when virus hadn't done this level of catastrophe, he showed me how men lobby behind women, as they got to fuck a women, right were her bread butter & passion lies

we, who we, i don't!

Just the immature people did

Wow 😳 Dr. Gates! Whats the value of finite partial air filters on exhaust fans? Maybe you could sell us air filters too? 💰 I’m glad I figured this out in early January 🐢

WHO said: 'the use of a mask alone is insufficient to provide the adequate level of protection'

Well Bill, everyone on FB thinks you're going to inject them with some kind of tracking devise. You and Mark need to have a sit down. Facebook is allowing conspiracies and lies to run rampant.

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Homo sapiens are toast

I hate this guy more and more every day, just as CNBC btw

I’m still wondering how he is the expert on viruses and vaccines. Has he become a medical doctor?

Wow this really great. Now can you fire Jim Cramer for being a misogynist on live TV on CNBC? This is not acceptable.

Im pretty sure Dr. Fauci knows more about masks than Bill Gates does. Bill Gates couldn't stop virus's at Microsoft how is he able to stop a man made Virus in real life? DemocratsAreDomesticTerrorists CovidHoax2020

Who is he? Don't know the man.

dearest Bill we have not underestimated anything before the case is then the time they reach everyone. good luck to all

Jan 21 Fauci claimed the coronavirus was “not a major threat to the people of the United States.” Feb 29 Fauci claimed there was no need for Americans to “change anything what you’re doing on a day-by-day basis” March 8 Fauci -There's no reason to be walking around with a mask

Does a mask protect Microsoft Windows from viruses?
