Bill Gates' 2015 warning against a global epidemic

At the time, he advised the world to build good response systems and used the Ebola crisis as a case study of how an epidemic can affect the global state of health and prosperity.Gates said the Ebola crisis was devastating, particularly in the countries where the disease was concentrated naming the death toll as severe but not as bad if the disease were airborne.

As of 25 March 2020, COVID-19 has killed 19,607 people and infected 434,978 people in almost every country in the world.Gates outlined a plan for preparedness for a global pandemic saying, health systems in poorer countries should be strengthened; a"medical reserve core" be created and equipped with the correct expertise to quickly respond to news of an outbreak.

Gates said the United States should practice acting against widespread pandemics by doing"germ games" simulating their response to the scenario.
