He's been warning about this kind of thing for years. No one wanted to listen, and now their legacies will suffer for it forever

How exactly does a nation "prepare" for a pandemic? Stocking up on vents and ppe and letting them rot in storage?

That doesn't make financial sense.

This is like saying FDR should have been criticized for pearl harbor or bush for 9/11.

Did he especially call out China and the WHO for not doing all they could do and as soon as they could do it; as in warning the rest of the world as they knew of the outbreak?

If only someone had invented a game for a pandemic so we could learn while playing.

Hmmmm

I'm not sure Bill has ever known a day in his life as a penny pincher.

Came from money and went into even more money.

You mean the idiot that says the US should be in shutdown for another 2 months? That idiot?

No, we don't want to listen to him now. Look, he was good at ripping off other people's products but other than that, well, not much else going for him. I have to hand it to him, he's good at stealing things, I mean copying.

By having contingency plans in place for multiple likely scenarios and then following them when one of the scenarios happens, rather than reacting like a decapitated chicken.

This isn't even that deadly of a pandemic compared to those of the past.

HIV is still going and has killed 36 million people.

The Flu Pandemic in 1968 killed 1 million people.

I can keep going but whatever.

This whole pandemic seems worse than it is because world leaders fraked out, panicked, and made it seem worse than it actually is.

The rules of evolution will have killed 99% of the same people in the next 5 years that were killed by COVID19.

Yes and he may also end up being the guy who is public enemy #1 when this is all said and done.

Is Shill Gates trying to become the most un-likable person on earth? Such a fricking tool. Why don’t you fund the national stockpile instead of pouring all your money into other continents?

frick Bill Gates. According to Johns Hopkins, we were the best prepared in the world. Some things cannot be stopped, especially those that were planned.

Easier said in the theoretical world than done in the real world.

If contingency plans involve shutting down economies prematurely, it isn't wise to do it early.

Gates can't call out the WHO. He's their Sugar Daddy - at least 2.4 billion in donations to the WHO

Bill gates owned Microsoft...where anonymous emails sent to you with a virus would destroy your computer. You would have to buy another one, from Bill Gates.

Now the patent owner of the Caronavirus Bill Gates. Who held meetings last October 2019 at John Hopkins University on how to handle a Caronavirus pandemic (Great guess Bill). Who now is working on a cure to save us all...RIGHT..
