Gates said about the threat of viruses more dangerous than COVID-19

The world could face pandemics much more serious than covid-19 , MICROSOFT founder Bill Gates has said. it is reported by the Financial Times.

“Spending billions to prevent trillions in economic damage and save tens of billions of lives is pretty good insurance,” Gates said.

While the delta and omicron variants of the CORONAVIRUS have become some of the most contagious viruses, the world is likely to face a pathogen that causes a much higher death rate or severe illness, he warned.

The billionaire believes that preparing for future pandemics can help solve a number of existing problems - for example, contribute to the development of HIV vaccines and more effective vaccines against tuberculosis and malaria.
